Well said Martin, The i8 is a sheep in wolves clothing.
It is a very advanced body with a backward step regarding its drive. How can such a light car use more fuel then my Ampera when in ICE mode! Now a fully electric i8 would be of serious interest. -------------------------------------------- On Mon, 6/4/15, Martin WINLOW via EV <[email protected]> wrote: Subject: Re: [EVDL] The Tesla Factor: Elon Musk Will Force Auto Industry To Roll Out Self-Driving Cars Sooner Than You Think - Forbes To: "EVDL Post Message" <[email protected]> Date: Monday, 6 April, 2015, 8:47 Just put a stinking comment on the article, actually. He may be right on the autonomous vehicle issue but when he comes out with nonsense like 'the i8 is challenging the MS as the eco car of choice' you have to take anything else he says with a truck load of salt, let alone a pinch!

I also think that the first long-haul trucking company to adopt self-driving rigs will thereby become the dominant force in that industry. Sure feels like we're at the cusp of a phase change, when all sorts of little things add up in a big and surprising way. b& _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA) _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
