Hyundai getting serious about Genesis 

I do like this and am glad to see them add some more color options again to the interior.  I think the current Navigator BL themes left a little to be desired and I miss Yacht Club wish they didn't drop it.  Also loved the blue theme on the Continental and wish that one made it in a few others, and of course Vinyard that my MKZ has is one that should have made it on others after the BL line was dropped from the MKZ.  Everyone who has sat in my MKZ LOVE the colors inside and out.        My MKZ is 8 years old now but even my 8 year old BL you can feel a significant upgrade material wise when sitting in it vs a same year standard MKZ.  It's one thing Lincoln really gets right currently.  

Correct but I could be wrong I thought GM was the first.  They have had it longer than most to my knowledge.  I am surprised Ford hasn't offered it at least on the Lincoln line but we all know Lincoln doesn't mean much to Ford these days.

There’s a big element of social engineering going on with aggressive legislation in favour of EVs and making life hard for people choosing to stay with ICE. Even with that, Europeans are still pushing back on embracing electric vehicles, especially to the thought of Chinese “dumping”.

Other than the coach doors, I don't see why this wouldn't go into production. I think the market is there for it. Maybe the next Santa Cruz, would benefit from his concept's style as well.

It looks like the Lotus, but by all means, build it! even if they only sell 10, it will outsell Lotus.

I like the idea of this, but not the execution. the front bumper is weird looking. The price is crazy. Interior looks good though. For $70k, all the windows should roll down instead of having to remove them.  

Do you have tube doors installed?

Yes and I would hope that the next version of Bronco Sport grows in length and wheelbase  to cover more of Escape’s sales footprint. Curious about the Ford China project, looks good IMO.

Yea, according to the info jpd80 shared the legacy automakers in Europe are shooting themselves in the foot:    ...progress is still much slower than we expected a few years ago, with legacy auto still clinging to rent-seeking from their past ICE investments, and slow-walking their BEV offerings. This is despite very steep drops in battery costs, and China already passing 50% EV market share this year.
