I would think the ID.1 would sell like hot cakes. I would definitely have an EV as a town car, 90% of my driving now, and keep a ICE for family trips

I like those. I'm not really even interested that much in a truck but I'd seriously consider one. And that's exactly the target they are trying to hit.

If they could deliver the hybrids you would see one in every lane.
This came in today at my local Ford dealer.

And you were at your local Ford dealer why exactly?

It's on the way to my morning tea break...lol
Saw a FWD. Rogue... 37 mpg highway...nice

@Zee09 Your Mitsu's are a better deal than the Nissan. I know they upgraded the CVT in the Altima to the better (Maxima V6) one in 2019, did they do anything with the Rogue or are they still ticking time bombs?

Survey here says current Nissans are very nice driving cars with great seats. A couple of my boxes and I know yours too, same opinion? Altima is kind of interesting as I think they are good looking properly optioned and you can get AWD which would be nice to have.

Prolly end up with an Arteon 4Motion though. Of course I said that last time.

That new Rogue has the new mouse motor..lol
201-hp 1.5-liter VC-Turbo™ 3-cylinder

I hear it is always under improvement. Same for the 2021 Mitsu..the drone was gone in my last AWD. I am not in the market for one but I like a SUV getting that mpg's.

My VW gets 2 more mpg combined that the EPA highway mpg.

I took the uber ride in that late model Rogue and it was nice...
Not a bunch of power but if I was in that market the Mitsubishi Outlander would be my choice only with 18" wheels...the 20s ruin it and the dealers here always order the 20 size

If you don't mind shipping you can get some deals as you know on the VW... Pickings are getting slim though. You can find tons of new Vettes but not Arties

Yeah there are not any Arteons to be had new except a few loaner cars with 6-10k on them. The 22s show pending but they haven't hit the docks yet as far as I know. You couldn't even get a 22 Jetta until nearly April and those come from Mexico!

I want it lol.

22s all show in transit etc guys who ordered are being told at least July I think.


Bet the 21 is a demo can't find miles anywhere though I'd not have a big issue with a loaner if everything else lined up

I have yet to see another around here in my travels. But today in MD. and DE. VW's are everywhere and both dealers are like 40 to 50 miles away. I never seen so many.

VW only has about 5% of the US market but I'm sure there are hot spots. They are not rare here by any means we've got at least 4 area dealers. Get a bit out into the boonies though far less common.

Alfas I'd consider rare and I may see 2 in a week then nothing for a couple more. Arteons on the other hand I may go 6 months between sightings.

That's why you're a rock star Zee!
