it was about time! finally a long trip in an EV for me this month, with a 1500km round-trip on the menu
but asking myself: do I need to order a charging pass like a Chargemap pass or else, or is it useless for a single rental trip?

I knew Elon would be unable to control himself.

Pro tip: this isn't going to make the Delaware Supreme Court more likely to reverse.

(I'll say it here: 99.97% chance of affirmance no matter what Elon does. Any reversal would be caving to coercion because the Chancellor's decision is rock solid.)

An English MAN is so very CROSS about JAGUAR going WOKE that he wrote 1,300 words about it in the DAILY MAIL, saying he'll buy a TESLA instead, although EVs are WOKE TOO but those aren't because they're made by ELON MUSK and uhhh ummm something about The Blitz

I mean, are they just gonna unveil a 3008 coupé wearing a DS coat?
Not that I'm surprised but the "vertical" back and the thin line between the grille and the bonnet are screaming "I'm a DS-badged Peugeot 408 based on the new 3008 aesthetic"

I no longer see the point in DS and it's kind of sad

thoughts?
seems aligned well aligned with JLR's will to transform the group into a "house of brand" like LVMH. but that's...bold
won't please the die hard fans of the brand I presume 🍿
