Its looks were hardly its central problem.
The drivetrain sucked *ass*. It couldn't handle terrain a 25 year old Subaru Legacy wagon could roll right through.

Someone should jailbreak the cybertruck drivetrain and put it in an old Studebaker or similar. Would watch.

If they sell just the drivetrain I would get one for a farm vehicle.

Suntour got a raw deal. I blame Shimano for running them into the ground.
I'm a roadie personally, but I'm loving the AR drivetrain on this steel frame

Like Superfast Matt put a Tesla drivetrain in 50 Jag. Pretty neat. He was an engineer with that company so he had some inside info as to "liberating" the controller.

The electric Vespa just got better where it actually matters
The electric Vespa just got better where it actually matters
Vespa’s electric scooters have never exactly screamed for attention. That’s sort of the point. They look like Vespas, ride like Vespas, and just happen to swap the gasoline engine for a much quieter electric drivetrain.
But for 2027, Vespa has given its electric lineup a fairly significant technological overhaul while leaving that iconic steel bodywork largely untouched.

I still think this clownish vehicle tricked Ford into sabotaging the Lightning.
Rather than sell "A pickup that has an EV drivetrain" Ford got spooked by Elon's clown parade (which started 4 years earlier than the Lightning roll-out) and scared them into some dumb "inventing the future" campaign/

The decision to halt production of Tesla’s polarizing polygonal pickup marks the end of an error.
RIP Cybertruck. You Were Unloved, Unwanted, and Utterly Absurd

As I close in on a year driving an EV, my takeaways are that I have no nostalgia whatsoever for any sort of drivetrain or transmission technology, that not having to do any work after dialing in the right drive, handling, and braking settings is good, actually, and acceleration is the core of fun.

I *hated* when they went away from the stylish teardrop taillights, to the stupid trio of round ones.
Utter pile of shit of a drivetrain, but I’d love to get one and work some 21st-century magic to the drivetrain/suspension.

The elegance of a mechanical drivetrain is hard to beat. Just cables, tension, and leverage. If a chain slips, you know exactly what physical law you offended. No error logs, no cloud sync—just grease on your hands and Newton keeping you honest.

XMs are targeted at neue-money influencers who want something big and loud a-la G-Class, but BMW failed to differentiate it enough from the X5/X7 to be compelling. Probably would have had more success sold as an X8 with a lower price point & more drivetrain options.

Gorgeous! I've got a 1981 Trek 412 frame with the original SunTour VX-GT derailleur. She's my regular road ride. Vintage drivetrains are just SO PRETTY!

If Mitsu wasn’t in such a dire spot, hear me out:
RalliArt version of this using the suspension geometry from the Evo X, bilstein suspension and all, then stuff the 4B11T and the AWD drivetrain in it. Five speed manual and the SST six speeds as well.
Basically what the 1st gen Kona N was.

My bike's had its new drivetrain a week, and I've managed to bend the rear derailleur already- something I'm certain hasn't happened before in the near two decades I've owned the bike.
