I have a 2012 Fisker Karma which is RWD (2 motors tied together on the rear axle.) Regen works fine- Default on startup is no (very little) regen; I always bump it to max as soon as I start to drive. I also had a 2013 Tesla Model S which was RWD- they didn't have dual motors back then. Regen on...

That's a good thought, and would certainly simplify the powertrain. here's the problem- since there's just one motor to power the wheels while driving as well as provide negative torque on regen, it (the motor-generator) has a clutch on both ends. The problem occurs when the motor-generator...

I've got a Tesla and a Fisker Karma and have a 4xe on order, as well as a Hummer EV reserved. I'm a little into EVs. For the Tesla I use the supplied 40A inline charger, and bought a second one for travel. For the Karma I bought one of those no-name 32A ones from Amazon (the car has only a 3.3KW...

No, they would not. The OEM doesn't have facilities or people to repair vehicles that are already built. If they discovered something that possibly needed to be fixed on every built vehicle, they would ship them to the dealerships and have the repair done there as part of the predelivery...

I agree with you Dude, and I don't think the delay is necessarily about VEHICLE quality issues, which are most effectively dealt with at the plant. I was talking about the delivery experience. I'm sure that some of us (not me of course) have a stakeout at the Jeep dealership looking for the car...

posted this note on the thread about the tax credit, but I'm reposting it here: "The stickers aren't the holdup if they are want to ship them. They *could* ship them with stickers that say "This vehicle is not for retail sale" then send the Monroney labels to the dealers when they are ready. I...

The stickers aren't the holdup if they are want to ship them. They *could* ship them with stickers that say "This vehicle is not for retail sale" then send the Monroney labels to the dealers when they are ready. I used to own a Cadillac dealership and a BMW dealership and we got new model year...
