Larger engine, yes. High performance? Absolutely not. It’s only 71hp per liter(257hp from a 6cyl 3.6L). It was tuned to run off regular gas. Honda had a car that made 120hp per liter(NA model, 240hp from a 4cyl 2L) and they stopped making it over 15 years ago. The Honda was naturally aspirated same as the Subaru. Hell, the current gen Miata makes 90hp per liter(and ~1300 pounds lighter). The subaru is…slow. Even staying in the world of ICE.
so comparing them to the higher performance versions of comparable EVs would be the only fair thing to do.
Let’s hop back to that Enyaq…5.5s? Yeah for the 340hp top of the line model that costs nearly twice what a 3.6L Outback does. So much for ‘comparable’. The Enyaq 80x is the most comparable at 261hp to the subie’s 257hp and it’s up at 6.9s. Both are AWD. Still faster than an Outback but by like a second? Not a huge deal in your everyday commuting.
The 2019 Outback(last year with 3.6) started at $35/39K with a 3.6L(limited / touring trims). Adjusting for inflation to 2021 and that pulls it up to $37/41K. The Enyaq 80X started at £46,610 in 2021. Just converting to USD using Google that’s $64.5K. It’s a pretty hefty amount more.
2·28 days agoI was walking through a gift shop at a museum and the mugs had an obnoxiously large sticker on the front that said ‘Decorated in the USA’. Never came across that before. They bought made in China mugs and slapped an image on them in the USA. I guess that’s slightly better than ‘Designed in the USA’ as some factory here actually did some printing.
5·28 days agoI’m on the mid tier fiber plan(3gbps) with my ISP which is $100 a month. Here’s the results from the daily speed test my router does.
StarLink is very expensive for the service provided. Its only advantage is the location availability which is essentially anywhere. If they installed fiber to rural areas then its usefulness falls dramatically. I’d rather they invest in more fiber rather than more StarLink satellites that only last about 5 years.
You should see if any of your credit cards allow you to make virtual credit cards. I can make an entirely new card with a unique number, expiration and code then lock/delete them or even restrict them to the first retailer they’re used at. I have like a dozen virtual cards that only work at a single retailer and lock them all until I need to use them. While locked all attempts to use them are declined.
