    Agreed YAWN!!! They really should have given a better update to this.

    I hope moving quickly means 18 months to on sale date.

    I could see this selling to the youth crowd. Way better than the Fiat buched up 500.

    I will have to give them credit it is a much better looking interior and exterior than their last version. Thought I clearly see the Minivan shape look. Maybe a bit to jelly bean. But nice auto none the less. Far better than their car line.

    It's an expense that the general public doesn't need. Plugging in 2 ipads in the back doesn't put that big a load on the electrical system. But when you add stereo stuff and other things like if you add an alarm or remote start due to the auto not having it, I have found in the past that if not done right by a person with attention to details it can come back and bite you in the arse! that is a question of installer competence, not electrical system capability We'll I did find one place that I wished I had a beefier electrical system. On my 94 GMC Suburban. I had purchased new current headlights for them and they caused the wire harness to burn out. So had to buy a new wire harness for the engine bay that could support the head lights. Other than that, you are correct installation competence is an important part in success with 3rd party products being added. It is amazing the quality of wire used for beefy stereo systems too.

    Sweet, Rocking the V8, yes he will fit in just fine. Welcome to the family, look forward to your posting and contributions to the site.

    OK, but the motor is more a take on BMW realizing they need to sell against the VOLT than Tesla. Tesla is pure electric no motor as a generator. I believe in my heart that politics aside, GM could easily build a superior Tesla type auto under the Cadillac logo.

    Hope they go towards the brick look of the Patriot as the Compass was just ugly.

    Interesting they should put these things in normal versions especially the electrical system.

    Awesome to have you join the C&G family. Welcome!

    Very cool history.

    Interesting, so then to say 36 powertrains, we must divide by 4 to realize that they will have 4 core engine lines that with different tuning and accessories will end up with 9 engine variances of the 4 main lines. 3 petrol and 1 diesel.

    Failure before even leaving the gate for Acura.

    So a quality thoroughbred that comes in under the media yard stick BMW M series. Nice Job!

    I'll be in Annapolis this coming week. Shame if something would happen to your nice new truck... Or you could put a special bow on it for Ocn, I am sure he would love a present in the bed!

    Is it here yet?

    I could see a luxury beefy AWD CUV selling.

    Surprising as with all the travel I do I do not see Suzuki auto's and commercial trucks much except in the Asian rim.

    Love to hear a larger off lease returns are coming. Means some nice fully loaded low mile used options.
  24. G. David Felt
    This should be interesting to see how it does and what people think of the auto.

    Conversely, many don't realize that these companies tend to very well overall when you consider total global sales. Suzuki, for example, outsells PSA (Peugeot, Citroen), Renault, BMW, Daimler AG (Mercedes) in total global units and have been generally profitable. This just goes to show how hard it is to overcome a bad reputation in a single country thanks to some $h!ty Daewoos. Mazda is doing pretty well for itself after its break-up with Ford. It has a ways to go, but is increasing its global sales and overall profits were up 77% as of the most recent quarter. Considering the constant praise its vehicles are managing, they're likely on track for continued success. Mitsubishi, on the other hand, is a fairly mixed bag. Globally, it produces about the same quantity as Mazda, but its latest profits were down 10% (but not in the negative). Does that include Suzuki motorcycles, marine products, etc or just truly auto's? Amazing to hear that Suzuki outsells those other brands.
