Let's face it, the era of sports cars for the average Joe is coming to an end. Once self-driving transportation becomes mainstream or mandated, there may not be a profitable market for performance cars. Why would anyone buy a sports car if they can't drive it and it always goes the speed limit? We may be relegated to driving our vintage sports cars on a track. Does anyone else see this differently?

The other part of this is. The self-driving car decides who lives and who dies in a crash.

I think the intent was to combine v6 power without sacrificing any of the traditional 4cyl mpg but agree, it doesn't seem to be much better than a normal 2.0T in either category. Should be interesting to see how this engine fairs.
