One of the UK's most popular series since 1977, Top Gear now brings its high-adrenaline action entertainment to America. The series tracks the colorful history of the automobile and showcases an offbeat celebration of the art of driving, featuring super-cars, extreme stunts and challenges, car reviews and celebrity interviews, as well as the eccentric adventures of its hosts with Top Gear's customary wit and humor. Hosted by comedian and car buff Adam Ferrara, champion rally and drift racer Tanner Foust and racing analyst Rutledge Wood, Top Gear explores the history of America, one lap at a time.
...they pissed me off with the pushing the roadster in the garage bit...
Finally watched the 2nd episode. Very good. A funny bit with a Drifting competition.
During the interview, the host opened the interview by saying to the guest he knows he has a Model S on order. Best part is that it was said as if it was cool -not a bad thing. It's clear this american show will cover the Roadster in a coming episode.
I wanted to get your opinion on a very hot topic now and that’s electric cars. There’s I think a perceived canyon between what car people love, style, horsepower, performance and burning rubber and this new segment of electric cars which are technically advanced but haven’t yet generated the same kind of passion. How do you feel about electric vehicles and are you excited about them?
People drive cars for different reasons. For me, I really enjoy that process of driving a car, the action of doing it, and it’s all encompassing for me. It’s not just an A to B thing. But there are millions of those that live in the city, drive every single day, and it’s really just almost an inconvenience that they have to get in a car and drive it. I think for those people an electric car makes great sense, assuming that we’re getting the electricity from a clean source.
Although at some time in my lifetime I may have an electric car, and I do love the instantaneous torque of electric power, for me I will always have, if the law allows, some sort of very fun combustion engine that makes a beautiful sound, something that I want to wake up to, something that motivates me to get on the road. In a lot of cases, when I’m driving somewhere it’s getting into the car and doing the driving that motivates me to get out of the house, not getting to the destination. I don’t think I’m alone in that respect.
