It looks like someone crossbred a VW Bus with a panda bear then startled it.
I mean, you gotta have a hobby 🤷
It’s pretty disgusting that here in 2024 they would still use outdated and inappropriate terms like horsepower and foot-pounds.
For some reason one of my calc classes in college used imperial instead of metric and it really highlighted the absurdity of it
Footpounding is a legitimate, if waning, practice.
not a single gay or young person on whatever team decided the name lmao
or maybe there were some, giggling in the background
We had a project once called Asset Analytics which the steering team decided to shorten to AssAnal. It lasted a couple of months until it was changed to metrics
I bet a certain Analyst/Therapist was involved in that.
I can barely imagine how funny that must have been
They knew
Some of these names must be handed to the higher-ups with pure malicious intent, I love it
Not malitious - this is a case of chaotic good. If it’s funny and harms noone, roll with it!
- malicious
- no one
Sure, corporations love to run wild and fun with their marketing…
The ones that make memorable marketing do.
It’s called an XBus now. Yes it’s not better.
But this is actually a pretty cool ev, the bed is swappable.
The next one will be called xbus 360, then xbus one, then one s…
The day is saved, we found a totally not memable name for our vehicle.
Would possibly create some confusion in Denmark where the public inter-region busses are called X-Bus…
I don’t get it. Please tell me the double entendere of “XBus.”
XXXbus
i don’t know what bussy means and at this point I’m to afraid to ask.
boy pussy, so just a man’s ass
I’ve also heard both “back” and “butt.”
thank you
And then there’s wussy, or woman bussy
Ooooohhh 🤣
i am learning so much today
The more you knussy
This is the funniest damn wiki entry I’ve ever seen.
…different uses of the suffix, such as the merging of “Margaret Thatcher” with “-ussy” to create the portmanteau Thatchussy.[2] Other examples include clussy (clown and pussy) and grussy (Grinch and pussy).[2]: 6
Just 20 HP? I need something that is able to survive while I’m farming. At least give us 40 HP.
It has plenty of MP and protective spells, though…
It’s supposed to be a tank class, who decided to make it a mage?
Dave. You know how he gets sometimes…
I think thats room for plenty members of parliament
Don’t worry, older tractors used to have 25Hp. You’ll be fine.
You speak like someone who never had a giant rat infestation in the cabbage patch not far from here
I prefer to constrain any rat infestations I have within my cellar thank you very much.
20 Hit points for a car isn’t much if we’re going by traditional RPG metrics, but I suppose I’m not sure what the creators were using as a template when they made it.
Depends on how traditional you want to get. The original metric was the number of 14" shells something could survive. Given that, 20 seems pretty good for a car.
So the average human is, what, 0.05 HP?
Originally, 1 HP.
How do we know it’s RPG and not RTS?
But that attack… Nnngh.
So how many people fit inside your ebussy?
At least 7
At once, or consecutively?
That’ll stretch you out like a turkey on Thanksgiving.
laoul
All right! Shut up a second and I’ll tell you! Jesus! I didn’t freak out like this when you told me how many girls you fucked!
Hey! my girlfriend fit 36 people in his ebussy!
In a row?!
Try not to suck any more dicks on your way through the parking lot.
I hate EV torque ratings. They’re not even remotely comparable to ICE vehicles.
The power ratings for the eBussy don’t adhere to SAE-J2908, btw.
Please at least use SAE-J2908.
Where do they even measure this, is it at the wheels?
You measure the bussy.
Exactly my point. You get it.
It’s X-bus nor ebusses
I found it’s a nice concept, manually remplaçable battery, modulable, light and long autonomy
Is it really modular if it doesn’t have lego compatible nubs
remplaçable
bom gia
I was excited about it as well… in 2021. They’re never going to build these and if/when they do, it will bomb hard. It has become way too expensive and there are cheaper real electric cars now. There isn’t a market for these overpriced quads anymore. Only ones going to drive these are those with a death wish.
Truly a sad day in history
The XBUSSY
Torque is a stupid, meaningless figure in almost any situation, but particularly in a vehicle where there is a transmission involved.
deleted by creator
it directly measures their ability to get up to speed
No, it doesn’t. power measures how fast the vehicle will get up to speed, torque is meaningless unless you know the RPM that torque is being made at.
Most legitimate torque ratings include at what rpm. Many articles do not include all the details.
That’s true, but of course the article doesn’t give an RPM range.
So you love me?

You’re both completely wrong. The only important measurement of a vehicle is spirit
I thought it was style, control, damage and aggression
And here I was thinking HP might be the Hit Points.
Don’t forget to check your tires people that’s a lot of torque
Edit: wherever the rubber meets the road
Only if you’re playing a mage. Otherwise you’ll want to know the vehicle’s HP, AC and THAC0.
Also wrong. If you compare two otherwise identical vehicles, the one with more power will both accelerate faster and have a higher top speed, assuming it has the gearing to use that power.
Stop getting all your vehicle knowledge from old top gear episodes.
To accelerate a vehicle we need to put kinetic energy into it and Power is the measure of how fast we can do that.
From a technical capability standpoint, torque is a useless measure. With a motor of a given power you can always gear it up or down to whatever torque you need (assuming a lossless transmission system).
If we take two identical trucks with 10k lb trailers on them and one’s a 800ft-lb diesel and one’s a 300ft-lb gas, both with 400hp, they sould realisticly accelerate and climb a hill at the same rate. The diference is the gas engine will be screaming at 6/7/8000 rpm and guzzling gas. (This also assumes no other factors like heat cone into play, the gas may not be able to maintain as much power due to cooling system designs or other factors).
Torquey-er engines also tend to feel better from a driveability standpoint but that’s not representative of capability.
What? Torque tells you what force can be applied at what distance from the center of rotation. Acceleration is a function of mass and force. Of course more torque is going to get you to accelerate faster.
Remember, power is torque times RPM, which is your accelerating force. It’s a functionally useless measurement without RPM.
An engine with half the torque revving twice as fast will make an equal amount of power, and accelerate equally fast.

Are you the one overtightening all the bolts in my shop??
Maybe.
Either it’s max defensive and evasion, or it’s the glassiest glasscannon since power-trick Shuckle.
I wonder what its typing is.
Finally, I can have a bussy.
Yeah, fuck those imperial units.
Lb-Ft, pfff …
