Tastes seem to be changing.

Brand Loyalty is Declining for Most Luxury Automakers

Brand loyalty has declined for most luxury automakers, but three brands—Tesla, Maserati, and Genesis—appear to have bucked the trend.

My 'taste' in cars revolves around one important issue and that is cheap.

Say what?....Wouldn't the negative be called "deceleration" ??
Don't see anything about slowing in the definition:

Definition of ACCELERATION

the act or process of moving faster or happening more quickly : the act or process of accelerating; ability to accelerate; the rate of change of velocity with respect to time; broadly : change of velocity… See the full definition

Enroll in an engineering school and you will be set straight on the definition, meaning, and application of "acceleration" in the first few weeks or you will flunk out.

Been there done that...degrees in civil engineering and architecture...
FYI...the definition is what is...!

My query was if the word "acceleration" meant both the "positive and the negative" why the word "deceleration"...?
What should have been pointed out (and I obviously missed) in the cited definition is...in physics the broad definition is "a change in velocity" i.e., increase or decrease...
So...something that is "accelerating" can be either speeding up or slowing down ?...but something that is decelerating is only slowing ??

semantics conundrum ?

Have you done that Tesla test drive yet?

Have you done that Tesla test drive yet?

Hopefully it don't have a depleted battery...lol

Been driving an EV for over 25 years...it's an EzGo...!
