I would tend to agree. But i would also say that is simply good business on their behalf. Very good business.
Look at the failure of the aptera, the loremo and other FE cars that never made it to production. No accident.
Anyway, with respect to the thread, i still wish to see someone better equipped than i carrying out this brake test. I have neither the time nor the resources to carry this out, only anecdotal evidence or personal experience. I'm reasonably convinced but that's not enough. There are many people out there with the resources but use it for nonsensical purposes. Just look through youtube and see what i mean. A simple brake test would be nice! Some videos come awfully close but not close enough. Ah well.
