There's an army of unpaid people willing to jump to their defense any time the topic comes up.

It's really confusing to me. There's clear evidence that it's possible to make cars much, much lighter, and at a similar price point, yet droves of people look at what's offered to them and swallow it whole.

A majority of cars are heavy now because of increased safety regulations.

Not going to see much weight reduction at this price point... !

Connectivity is the future, however at a huge price.
