'Teases prototypes'? Do they think it's 2010? Nobody cares about your EV prototypes, launch something people can buy or just resign yourself to being killed off by the wave of Chinese EVs.

As a great philosopher once said, "Shit or get off the pot."

100% with this.

I am all for more EV options, especially if it’s a compact car. But nobody cares about reveals. Just release them.

I’ve been waiting a very long time. I told myself the next car I buy will be an EV. Well, my 10 year old car finally cost die to repair than it’s worth.

My preferred car brand is quickly being killed off by Toyota (Subaru), and they have an absolute dogshit EV. I bought an EV, and I’m very happy with it. But the experience is not great. I will never buy a Tesla, and the other brands don’t have anything that makes me excited. I would be very excited about a Honda EV.

I thought I'd be sticking with Subaru after how awesome my Impreza has been. Unfortunately the Soltera/BZ4X is a complete joke.

Instead I'm hoping that I can hold out long enough to actually get this thing.

Yooooooo! I love that. I’ll admit, if Subaru releases a “Baja” like car again, I’d be the first one to buy it.

Thanks for sharing!

"Teases, reveal and prototypes" is a lot of hedging.

They already look ugly as fuck.
