^ Haven't seen too many Audi e-trons. Seen a bunch of Porsche Taycans though. Tesla still outnumbers all other EV cars like 10:1 it seems.

The Audi e-tron has a shitty range, too, at least compared to Tesla; like barely over 200 miles or something. It's like, what's the point of getting one (unless you're just gonna use it around town, I suppose)? I guess that's why Tesla outnumbers all other EVs.

I feel I see more Taycans than e-trons as well. I'm not sure about their range, but my guess is that Teslas still beat Taycans range-wise.

Yeah, the e-tron's range is estimated at 222 miles.

The Taycan seems to range between 201 and 278 miles depending on the trim and if you opt for the performance battery.

In terms of direct competitors, the range for the Model S ranges between 390-405 miles. For the SUV ones, the X or Y, it is between 303-360 miles. So Tesla still holds a significant advantage here.

I feel I'm seeing more and more of these new Ford Bronco Sports. I'm not a Ford fan nor an SUV fan, but I find these to be kinda nice-looking---though I'm sure that once they become more commonplace, I won't think they're all that anymore.

Yeah, it's a Hyundai, but it's a fuel cell vehicle. How common are fuel cell vehicles in your area? Photo taken Sunday, 8.15.2021.

homebucket Aug 17, 2021 3:30 AM

^ Nice, I've never seen one IRL. Hydrogen cell vehicles are pretty rare in general since I believe there's only hydrogen fuel stations in the Bay Area and LA, and I believe there's only one in between, and the wait times for it can get pretty long, or there might be all out, so going long distances will be pretty tough.

sopas ej Aug 17, 2021 3:57 AM

Actually in my area, I see quite a number of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. There's a hydrogen fuel cell pump near where I live in South Pasadena:

Photo by me

It'd be great if they became more common; it doesn't take long to refuel a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, it's just like gassing up an ICE car. If you've ever driven behind a Toyota Mirai, though, they sometimes spray water from their tailpipe. It's pissed me off driving behind one after I just had my car washed, and then I get sprayed with water from one. It's like, why don't they design them so that the water exhaust pipe doesn't spray from the back of the vehicle? Why doesn't the drain pipe let out the water from the bottom center of the car instead?

Here's a map of hydrogen fuel stations in California:

What’d you think? Would it be worth it if you had the money?

Definitely the fanciest marque I've ever sat in. Don't know what it feels like to drive it of course, but nah, I don't think it'd be worth the money. It's definitely not me, I'd actually be uncomfortable (maybe even embarrassed) driving it around.
