I think it can safely be said now that if you're using Top Gear as a buyer's guide when shopping for a car (and considering an electric car), you're doing it wrong.
I love the show. It's the most entertaining "car show" on television. But I've never had the inclination to take what these guys say to heart. By that I mean, 90% of the time the hosts are reviewing Bugattis, Ferraris and Lambos, which is a world completely disconnected from my own. Can one really expect practical reviews?
- vaksel 15y agotheir Ford Fiesta review was pretty practical
- hugh3 15y agoI dunno. I think Clarkson made using the Fiesta for storming a beach a platoon Royal Marines seem a lot easier than it actually is.
- killerswan 15y agoAll I know is that I wouldn't hesitate to buy a Hilux if I needed a truck.
- ugh 15y agoCan one at least expect them not to lie?
- tatsuke95 15y agoThat's a valid point, obviously. I haven't seen the Leaf review, and have long forgotten the Tesla episode, but from what I recall it wasn't a "lie" as much as a serious "implication". I could be wrong, but the lawsuit will straighten that out.
