2016 BMW X5 eDrive

5
BMW is going electric in a big way. The company honchos say so, openly. They see the IC engine as doomed - not because of scarce gas but omnipresent Uncle. Emissions...

2017 Chevy Volt

Only Nixon could go to China, they said. Maybe they will say the same about me - and my (ducking now) endorsement of the Chevy Volt… . Ok. I just popped my head...

2016 BMW 330 eDrive

Here - for once - is a hybrid that does not suck. Gas - or otherwise. The BMW 330 eDrive. You can drive the thing 80 MPH(or faster) on just the batteries. And as far as...
