Well the battery holds 16 kwh, and that takes you 40 miles, and a kwh from your outlet at home costs between 8 and 12 cents on the east cost (7 cents in the mid west) so you are talking about $1.60 to run the battery dry, but also i remember reading it only uses 8 kwh before turning on the generator so it may go 40 miles for 80 cents of electricity not counting power lost through charging and sitting around etc.

How much is this supposed to cost, because a 335 is going to cost u about 55k with options and all the stuff the dealer tacks on.

So the 2.4 doesnt have VVT, have they made any improvemnts to it seeing as how it gets bashed for being rough?

I think this is going to own the competition, at least what is out roght now, I will say the new C-class looks to be a winner too (tho its probably loaded with merc electronics), but this will kill the is, gs, tl, and depending on how the press receives it may catch up to the 3 in sales. If its as nics inside it may finally open the door for caddy in europe as well. Lets hope a refreshed STS follows in these footsteps.

Saab has an engine that can change its compression ratio based on the revs. http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive...gy/1266656.html

No blath, Oct 05 sales are 19% lower than Oct 04 sales for caddy. OVerall i think they are fine however. New DTS and escalade should mkae this easy next year, and the new CTS the year after that. Too bad the SRX is a dud. http://media.gm.com/servlet/GatewayServlet...n=3&docid=20121

I'm still in school so i couldnt afford it, but if they kept it under 3200 pounds and it looked good inside/out it could be something id want.
