    It’s 27 HP. 27 HP. Literally nobody could tell the difference with a blind test unless on a Dyno or on a racing track.

    And on an ev I would pay extra (one time, fuck subscriptions) to have less HP because that translates to more range, longer life for tires and cheaper insurance.

    In this specific case I’m ok, because it only takes money from gullible people.

    If it was something way more useful like GM that is intentionally disabling carplay or android auto because in this way they can sell a map/data subscription, FUCK THEM!

      Fuck off, property-rights-hating shill! You are not only wrong but dangerously so, and there is absolutely nothing you could ever write that could ever change my mind.
