"This announcement marks the end of the solely combustion engine-powered car." - Volvo Cars CEO Hakan Samuelsson said.
All Volvo car models launched after 2019 will be electric or hybrids, the Chinese-owned company said on Wednesday, making it the first major traditional automaker to set a date for phasing out vehicles powered solely by the internal combustion engine.
The Sweden-based company will continue to produce pure combustion-engine Volvos from models launched before that date, but its move signals the eventual end of nearly a century of Volvos powered solely that way.

Correction - FROM 2019 onwards!

going from literally only one 4cyl block to e isn't that much of a big leap anymore.
also, we already have a thread about that, OP.

What do you consider required every day carry in your daily driver?
I'd say the obvious like jumper cables and a simple tool box

Keys, proof of insurance, driver's license, cell phone, aux cable.
That's all you need.
>>
>>17480941
Keys, wallet if fuel might be needed.
> Tools
If you need them, your car is unreliable and should be scrapped.
> Aux cable
If you need one, your stereo is obsolete.
> Phone
D I S T R A C T I O N.
Should be locked in the boot by law.
> License/insurance
Only if you live in a police state and drive something that gets pulled over all the time
> Gun/weapon
Only if you live in a third-world country.
All you really need is the minimum required to operate your vehicle.

What is the point of having an air intake on an electric car? Is this actually for cooling or is it for the condenser?

Question.
I recently purchased a 2007 Volvo s60 2.5t and I was contemplating installing a Cold air intake. Now I've done some research on the device and can't seem to find any cons. So I was wondering what are the cons of the Cold Air Intake
< Tl;dr What are the cons of having a cold air intake

It cools the air down which could result in an ice age.

The vulva is not the vagina.
>>
>>17480554
It can make the carburetor ice up in colder weather, stalling your engine.
what are some weird driving habits you have
the car i drive now has something like pic related but i usually just leave it in neutral and pull the e-brake to park

I'm retarded with electronics, what tools do I need and what should I know when I need to get to wiring when I perform an engine swap?
Another note, the engine will be a different brand from the car.

Hey /o/, I've recently come into money and am choosing between either a C7 Z06 or a Nissan GT-R as a weekend driver/track day car. What are you guys' thoughts on how these cars compare ?

>No MORE than 4k
>No LEASES
>No FINANCING
>Craigslist and private owner only, no stealership allowed
Game starts from this point on

A 924, in any form, is not "high performance" and especially not "high horsepower".
>>
>>17478494
That's the point, work the way up until we find the ultimate performace budget car which is bone stock.
For less than 4,000 of course.

Childhood is idolizing the Italians
Adolescence is idolizing German "engineering"
Adulthood is finally realizing that American cars are the most fun, most reliable, most interesting, most well engineered, best cars on the road.
