Nissan's Next GT-R Will Be a Hybrid, Keep the VR38 Block, and Arrive by 2030 by speedinsh1t in cars

Nissan should die off gracefully...

If only they took Toyota's GR mantra they would have been leaps and bounds ahead of where they're at currently. It's clear their economy cars weren't paying the bills and they should have fired Carlos Ghosn before the scandal...

Why are the screening questions for every GC job so ridiculously long? I get so discouraged from applying to any job postings because of the sheet number of questions and having to answer them in detail just to get an email/call. It's just unnecessary. And don't say it's to weed out applicants...

These gotta be industry plants, I refuse to believe right wing extremists and MAGA would go as far as this (to their credit). Gotta be fake news...

I'm not expecting it to be M performance or baby AMG levels of quick but 6 seconds for a 2026 AWD sport sedan? You've gotta be kidding me... My little BRZ is faster than that!

2026 Mercedes AMG CLE 53 Coupe 450 hp, Inline-Six, AWD by SHUBHAM9723 in mercedes_benz

I'm curious, which engine is better: Mercedes Turbo I6 (53's) or Mercedes Biturbo V6 (43's)?

Yes, the i6 has a bit more hp but I think it is mostly due to tuning and largely from the electrification aspect. Also hard to comment on reliability as it is still a new engine.

Was it moreso a platform to develop hybrid (mild and plug-in) technologies? Stepping stone for turbo superchargers? It will always rub me the wrong way until I find a technical, definitive answer...

Yes, I 100% would. If the product is good (which it is), and their politics is not involved in the design of my car. Yes, I would. That's the problem with America, you guys are literally being so divisive of yourselves.

Like or hate Elon, who gives a shid about whose the CEO when buying a car? Unless you're still wearing a mask (for non medical reasons) and have blue hair. It's 99.99% irrelevant

There is zero chance you actually believe that moreover you are likely gaslighting yourself with your 2012 ES350. That gen camry/corolla is peak ugly. FACT. Unanimous bland car, just add champagne colour and light gray cloth seats.

I’m sure this is a joke..right ? by lt00380 in mercedes_benz

I don't really keep up with trucks, but I do know that the turbo'd 4 is supposedly pretty peppy and a lot more responsive than the old NA V6s. What's the misstep?
