The question is whether it is really necessary to throw in a more expensive diesel engine.” …

I’ll especially miss the tech tidbits you can’t find on other cars, including a readout that displays how many kilowatts are currently being routed to the drivetrain, climate controls, and electronics systems and a button that directs the A/C only to the driver to conserve energy.” Click to Read More Lees hele artikel
