George Lucas really nailed modern fascism, didn’t he?

Oh I’m not either, and I still think there’s merit in hydrogen for specific use cases (where weight and material costs are issues, possibly for energy storage, etc.) But for this specific application, it seems really silly not to also offer an EV version

Like, it really drives me crazy there isn’t one. It’s a neat design that would probably resonate with buyers. Put a powertrain in it that can actually be used in 99% of the country

Well, if they offered a full EV version

Ok, but I do actually like the shirt in the first photo lol

Also, Severance has an amazing cast of cars, if not any single hero cars (though Harmony Cobel's VW Rabbit is probably close)

Plus, the world is getting used to that with other franchises too, especially superhero stuff. And honestly, Bond is basically a superhero

I have loads of respect for Horowitz (he wrote one of my favorite series growing up the Alex Rider spy series, and I’ve heard excellent things about his Foyle’s War TV series), but I agree with you guys, just reboot, soft or hard. Different actor, different continuity.

Really? I thought it was voice synth too
