This week the Autoextremist hijacks the Autoline airwaves while John is in Frankfurt for the big auto show. Speaking of the Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung, we'll be getting into a Frankfurt post-mortem including the invasion of tiny slo-mo EVs from VW, Opel and Audi and the Jeep Grand Cherokee-based Maserati Kubang. We'll also discuss the NADA's lobbying effort against upcoming fuel regulations, and we'll talk about whether we'll see watered down rules if Obama loses the White House. Also, Coda's EV will be the first (almost) Chinese vehicle to enter the American market. And, Chevrolet will be aiming the next-generation Corvette at younger buyers -- will it work? To discuss this and more, Peter De Lorenzo is joined in studio by Sharon Terlep of the Wall Street Journal and Gary Vasilash from Automotive Design and Production.
I find it funny. Before the show and the Audi came out, and those designs with the separate wheels, I started to think about how cool it would be to have a car like that, like the prowler, but just a normal car...and then bam, heres the design, lol...
