Internal combustion, accept no substitutes...

History may repeat itself. The '80s all over again. The domestic manufactures build vehicles nobody likes or wants and the Japanese swoop in and satisfy a demand not being met.

I’d like to think there will still be ICE options 15 years from now, but Renault/Nissan announced Infiniti will be electric only in the near future and Honda pulled out of F1 to concentrate on electric development. So sad.

TBH I think a boosted AWD vehicle with a launch mode could only benefit from a hybrid powertrain.
