      Yes! I do see some old Maverick, which we'd refer to as a "toad." I didn't know you had a Chevy Aveo.  What year and how many miles on it? Which part of it gave up the ghost? Yes, I remember your stories about your '78 Olds Cutlass Supreme with a 260 V8 that you beat to hell and back.  My dad would have gone off on me if I didn't baby the cars I was handed down to make them last a long time, the first of which was also a Cutlass Supreme. In a way, I sort of liked one thing about that magenta colored AI Cutlass Supreme. The front modification from 1981 was referred to as the shovel nose grille.  The AI version keeps it slightly canted back, eliminates the shovel nose, and references the car to the full size Oldsmobile line-up.

      My issue is the complexity over having an EV motor on the axel. I honestly do not get the need for this type of transmission. Software can usually handle adjustments to optimize efficiency.  This story nails it why the dual stage EV9 Motors are better than using an eCVT. The Kia EV9 Has Motors Unlike Any Other EV

      @A Horse With No Name My little Chevy Aveo Finally died, replacing it with a Camry probably. The 2026 models are all Hybrid.  So how many miles do you drive it a day? The price of a new Camry Hybrid is so much more than many returned used EVs. A Kia EV6 or Hyundai Ioniq 5 would be good considerations. Even cheaper if you can handle the 149 miles of a base Nissan Leaf or 212 range in their SV Plus you can get these cars very cheap. Even if you use 110V charging, you would still save tons of money.
