    • While I think the Luce looks pretty damn bad, I don't think a Crown comparison makes a whole lot of sense, imo.  I feel like it wasn't all that long ago that Ferrari stated they'd never make an SUV and never make an EV. Look where we are know...  Things like the Luce are why it wouldn't take a whole lot to convince me that automakers are deliberately making EVs look horrendous so when they don't sell they can say, "see, nobody wants EVs." It also just isn't impressive technology-wise. It charges as quick as a Silverado EV and Kia EV# (along with anything else that charges at 350kw) and it's no quicker than a Lucid and not even THAT much quicker than a Hummer EV. Oh yeah, it also has a pretty crap range. It just isn't impressive in any way. 
    • I do definitely agree there. 150kw max charging certainly isn't great, although I'd try and never publicly charge to make that a near-never issue.    You're the one who kept telling me that the Silverado EV still had CarPlay...  If I had the monies, I'd love to go the Scout route. I think they look so damn good. I've seen a handful of Silverado EVs and they just don't do anything for me. I want to like them because technologically they are so damn good, but I can't get past their aesthetics. The same goes for the Blazer EV. I want to like it. It does what I want and has the technology that would suit my, but I just can't get past how it looks. 
    • I don't know why i didn't consider that it had fwd
    • Nothing front wheel drive is going sideways when you floor it. 
    • Have to say it was indeed a surprise to find out that Ferrari collaborated with Toyota to make the new Crown EV.   Oh wait.
