My brother works for Tesla. I'd be way more inclined to buy an ev from an auto manufacturer that already knows how to make cars. Not one that just entered the game. Ask me why I think that way lol

Tesla, on the other hand, is all-in and this makes for a scary time for owners and the company. I personally don't have the stomach for that much anxiety, but many people have made the jump and most- from what I'm reading- won't ever go back. In the end, I think tesla will be very successful(again, if they can make the cheaper version) and we will be grateful to them for laying the groundwork necessary to get the major automakers on board. Yeah, the cars aren't really 'affordable' yet, but their currently making the ones that generate a profit(kinda like what the big-guys are doing). Sorry, I realize this isn't a discussion on tesla... |

Apparently tesla has had some major fitment issues. How pissed would you be if you bought a $140k model x and it started raining...inside the car. Yes, they make phenomenal batteries. Yes, their drivetrains are solid. Yes they're an all in company pushing the envelope and breaking ground. But id just give them a few more years before I'd ever consider buying one.
"They" say to never buy the first year of a new model. I'm gonna say never buy the first decade of a new car manufacturer. Kia is a prime example. Remember the first 6 years of the sportage? Lol

The coming '20 Yaris hatch is based on design that's been out a few years, wont be a "first year". Mazda 2 hatches already exist overseas.

Tesla, Baxter cobot robot
Baxter was the first Cobot in production, but the company went kaput when the established commercial robot companies started introducing Cobots.

five door subcompacts Toyota Corrola wagon versus Yaris
You'd like my Bauhaus design school sub-compact 1991 Corolla Wagon --hued grey w/ ALL black trim...bumpers, everything. Minimalist adjustable roof-rack that completely removes with six screws.

Do some research, the current Yaris is not a Ford design.
There's a new generation Mazda small call platform, DJ, introduced in JDM since 2014. So, this site will have to create a "4th gen Yaris" message board, don't like it, go buy another brand. Last edited by 2008RedHatch; 02-09-2019 at 01:07 AM. |

If it does stick with the 1nz then at least the engine will be reliable. The body may be a different story...
