“The Human Machine Interface team at Chevy nailed the Equinox EV. You step in, you pull the satisfying shifter to drive off, you adjust your radio and HVACs via nice, well-located switches, the crisp and vibrant screen feels well integrated into the dash — it’s a great example of how to just get the fundamentals right and not try to overcomplicate things (something that has happened a lot in the EV space, especially in the early days when automakers felt all EVs had to feel like spaceships).”
GM Nailed The New Chevy Equinox EV, But Would You Actually Buy One? - The Autopian
I recently had a chance to drive the 2025 Chevy Equinox EV, and overall, I liked it. It’s a competent and fun machine, and it’s priced really well, relative speaking. But right now the EV market is in a tricky spot, and the new Equinox EV is entering the lion’s den. So I have to […]

@BillMcGuire @kims Who said anything about ruining one's day?
You can't understand how someone might find it annoying to have to do this unnecessary little task over and over again?

@BillMcGuire @kims Why snark at someone who is just sharing their experience? What's it to you?
