    It's the same vehicle, but WAY faster and cheaper to operate and with better balance. The C series is just chopped version of the XC like a BMW X4 or Audi Sportback.

    I loved my RDX, it's just that I'm paying another $4-500/mo in fuel to drive it, and I don't love it that much. It costs me as much today as an Audi SQ5 would have in 2020. It's just not worth it. The C40 will be absurdly fast (in comparison), simpler (I am coming to hate all the drive modes)...

    That wouldn't work for me. My meter is 100ft from my house/garage.

    Change of plans. After being yanked around by multiple Kia dealers, and having an EV6 on order for 2+ months with ZERO updates (I was told I'd have the car in 1-2 months, and get a VIN# in 1 month). After seeing numerous posts about motor/axle problems. After seeing a ton of Facebook posts about...

    Nothing like that here. I also don't get state tax credits, either.

    I fully agree, and the EV6 is rated at 100% more range than I "NEED" for this reason.

    Is this for the EV6, or EV's in general? The EV6 is one of the most efficient EV's I've seen in the cold, with testing in 32*F weather showing only about a 12% range drop vs. 72*F due to how the heat pump is set up. That said, I need a MINIMUM of 120mi range, and it's rated at 274, so I should...

    The ev6 has a pretty legit awd system. Its rwd bias, but not near as bias as the rav4 with only 16% of the power going to the rear. The ev6 is much more performance oriented. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1azOFfwKTYE

    Got the ev6 on order. I love the RDX, but at $5-600/mo in fuel...its AMG or ///M money per month, which makes no sense cost vs benefit. Make no mistakez the cx5 turbo would be the same story. Im averaging a bit over 24mpg in the rdx. Same commute in the cx5 was 27.0. Both always got 91 octane or...

    Autogefühl drives and reviews new Mazda CX-60 PHEV

    Definitely. It's going to have to really be a step above, to sell. My RAV4 Prime was an absolute monster for power, although it had a lot more torque than this CX60. It would crush stuff like WRX and would hang with brand new base Camaro. Monster. Just terrible AWD.

    Autogefühl drives and reviews new Mazda CX-60 PHEV

    It's a wet clutch DCT per the video, as best I can tell. Obviously it's RWD architecture as you note, but what I really think you want to know is about the transfer case and diffs and the split appropriation logic and capacity. I am definitely watching for the CX70, and may very well trade my...

    Wrx STi stock is super laggy. Those impressive 0-60's result from hella clutch drops.

    and best 0-60, the one above was actually about 0.2 slower, but I didn't do a full quarter on this one. These times are not torque braked, but rather, just giving it the beans in sport mode with traction control off. The acceleration is a hair better than my CX5, I remain confident, as my...

    Low Engine Oil Warning Light on new CX-5

    On that note, Mazda acknowledges. Id see how they make it right if you otherwise like the vehicle.

    How many miles on your CX-5 turbo?

    80k mi on it when I sold mine. Zero issues with powertrain. Zero oil usage.
