I'd like to flesh this out more in the future, so I'm all ears. Read more

Just a matter of... time. Read more

Awesome. Thanks Mr. M! Read more

And electric bikes are using 6 speeds (Brammo, Lightning and Mission). Read more

Stand by. Read more

Tesla is using a chipset from NVIDIA. And the reason most automakers are using older chipsets is because the process to make them automotive grade is more arduous and takes more time. Read more

From what I've heard, salaries are competitive. The problem is a lack of allure working at an automaker in the Valley. Read more

Audi and other automakers are launching modular headunits. The screen stays the same (fine) and the chipset can be swapped out. Read more

Figure most of the chipsets are at least 2-3 years old when they make it to market. Combine that with resistive touchscreens (still a thing) and you've got a subpar experience. Read more

It's a massive problem in the Valley. I've heard it first hand from both programmers and automakers. Mercedes just built a massive tech center, and one of the design briefs was to make it as enticing as possible for prospective candidates. Read more

Thanks for the reply. The new AutoTempest looks great. Any plans for a motorcycle-specific version or are other subsites? Read more

I suspect you're the outlier. Read more

Study? Source? Read more

Funny you mention the suspension. This is one of the few times the weight is working to our advantage. The engineer in charge of the project actually likes the handling of the U.S.-spec model more than the Euro. Weight is more balanced and the suspension tuning made it more compliant. Also, the 8C is shit. Read more

Dry-sump? Yup. Read more
