Industry News: Trump's Tariff Threat Turned Out To Be A Farce

Narrator: This is false. -
Even Range Rovers are unibody now. Lexus just knew they could make more money on a jacked up Camry "Sport Utility" than if they did a wagon.

So in theory, if each set can get 4 speeds and manufacturers are putting 3 sets in, the maximum number of ratios is 12?

Do try not to spread politics to non-political threads. Keep it to the tariffs threads.

Mercedes unveiled the Mercedes-Benz GLB at an event in Salt Lake City yesterday. The GLB joins the GLA in the small crossover space, however it can be configured with seating for up to seven passengers. Built on the compact, front wheel drive, transverse engine platform that is shared with the GLA, the boxy shape makes the most of its 111.4 inch wheelbase (5.1 inches longer than the GLA). The GLB can be purchased as a 5-seater or 7-seater with a second row that can slide fore and aft up to 6 inches. Mercedes says the boxy shape gives the GLB powerful off-road proportions, and short front and rear overhangs help with approach and departure angles. Front-wheel drive is the default, and Mercedes 4Matic all-wheel drive is optional and comes with various modes for comfort, sport, and off-road. Hill-Start assist and downhill speed regulation contribute to the GLB's off-road chops. Powering the GLB is a 2.0 liter transverse 4-cylinder with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The engine produces 221 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque from 1800 rpm - 4,000 rpm. It is likely that we will later see AMG engine variants join the lineup like the 416 hp 4-cylinder that AMG just debuted. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB will be in dealerships by the end of 2019. At a glance: GLB 250 4MATIC Transmission 8G-DCT (automatic) Displacement (cc) 1991 Output (hp) 221 at rpm 5,500 Max. torque (lb-ft) 258 at rpm 1800 - 4000 Acceleration 0-60 mph (s) 6.9 Top speed (mph) 130 *Spec for load compartment capacity calculated according to VDA standards.

You'd have to do almost the entire interior wrong. For example, the dashboards are all unique, so buttons and such would be in the wrong place. The door panels are unique, the window/seat control panel from my car won't fit a Riv or Eldo. I think someone would catch that.
