Man modern Audi design really dropped off the cliff, rather look at the BMW pignose than that catfish design.

I saw a recent Audi A5 and the rear tail lights is something out of a terribly made 90s alien movie.

I always see rs7 wagons on the street, they don't seem that big besides wide.
But yes I agree new cars are huge just look at the fat ass M5 wagon.

I think you mean RS6 wagons.
To my knowledge, no RS7 wagons. RS7 Sportback sedans, yes but no wagons.

Polestar had just announced their new plans for their upcoming model line up, and there'll be a Polestar 4 estate that might sound exciting for some of us.
Personally, I'm more interested in the new 2, but that won't come until early next year (or so they say).

Was happy to hear 'estate' = wagon but here are some early conceptual image/renderings ... looks like any other compact SUV to me. Not really seeing the long roof classic wagon look.

I am not a wagon / estate fan myself, so I don't particularly care for there being one or not.
Having said that, I think the proportions of the rendering you showed are fairly nice -- the way the roof extends to the rear, along with the more traditional hatch looks much better and cleaner to me than the funky fastback with no rear glass on the current Polestar 4.
Until manufacturers can / are willing to stop packing thick battery packs along the floor of the EV, it's gonna be difficult to see an EV that sits at a normal ICE sedan / wagon height. Quote:

I like wagons - C43 drives way better than GLC and E63 drives way better than GLE.
I hope they keep them alive but it's looking a little grim.
American enthusiasts buying hella RS6 and E63 are really keeping this shit alive.
British folk used to be majority wagon/hatch, now majority compact SUV.
European dads like my boss now drive plug-in SUVs for more space & tax saving, had V60 T8 before.
German market is 60% company cars, 75% tax reduction with EVs and no wagons are EV.

Wow, Mustang Mach-Es are pretty heavily discounted right now.
Base model is discounted $12k, Premium discounted $14k, and the GT and Rally versions discounted $15k.
With freight and PDI included, you can get a base RWD for $44k, triggering the federal rebate for another $5k off that.
And the Premium AWD is $48k - $5k rebate.

bluecruise is probably my fav highway driving assist

supercruise just completely disables lol
fsd's latest driving attention stuff is overbearing

The new rules are based on "final transaction value". Iirc include dealer fees, accessories, and add-on packages, but as well as discounts and incentives.
Excludes tax, extended warranty, and freight and PDI, etc (this was new to me, didn't realize that part!)
Full list of exclusions and inclusions here: https://tc.canada.ca/en/road-transpo...-program#toc_2

Pretty sure most EVs can one-pedal drive...
all the current Hyundai EVs will 1-pedal drive...
