True, but with the resources of a real car company you could get a 1l 4 stroke REX motor in there. The i3’s REX setup weighs <300lbs. That’s not as light as a 2 stroke but not bad. |

"the Toyota Mirai, rolled onto dealership lots five years ago. This December, the all-new, second-generation"
LOL I have never heard of this before and it is five years old and headed into the second gen?

I also notice them a lot because as they merge onto the freeway the driver understandably stands on the throttle pedal it spits a bunch of wastewater out the tailpipe which invariably just sprays all over the place not any different from the car in front of you hitting the windshield wipers and dusting your hood and windshield with little specs of water... |

Nobody is going to call them out for the seriously tacky name? I'd expect it from Kia and Hyundai, not Toyota...
Edit: for those not in the know, Mirai means future |

This second gen is pretty nice. Looks like the bastard child of a LC500 and a Stinger or something, but in a good way. Too bad performance won’t match the price tag; 0-60 in 9 seconds—ouch. I’m sure that EVs will outsell this by large margins.
