It's pretty disgusting that here in 2024 they would still use outdated and inappropriate terms like horsepower and foot-pounds.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
It's called an XBus now. Yes it's not better.
But this is actually a pretty cool ev, the bed is swappable.
The day is saved, we found a totally not memable name for our vehicle.
i don't know what bussy means and at this point I'm to afraid to ask.
i am learning so much today
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.
Don't worry, older tractors used to have 25Hp. You'll be fine.
I think thats room for plenty members of parliament
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?
I hate EV torque ratings. They're not even remotely comparable to ICE vehicles.
The power ratings for the eBussu don't adhere to SAE-J2908, btw.
Please use SAE-J2908.
Where do they even measure this, is it at the wheels?
You measure the bussy.
Exactly my point. You get it.
Yeah, fuck those imperial units.
Lb-Ft, pfff ...
Ebussy sounds like a dating or porn service for femboys
... I want one so badly now
Down bad on the eBussy
Ich liebe die e-Busse
Sehe auch kein Problem hier. Alle lieben doch Bussis

I don't understand the joke... send help.
Couple of years ago the use of slang that consisted of making portmanteaus of the word "pussy" (using the suffix "-ussy", also word of the year 2022 IIRC) with other words rose. At first it was mostly for implying said thing was used as a pussy (thrussy: throat pussy, bussy: boy pussy) but then it evolved into a comedic way to refer to "hole of said thing" (chussy: hole in the chest as in pectum excavatum).
In this case, this vehicle is called eBussy because it's a tiny electric bus. But due to the slang, it can also be interpreted as "electronic boy pussy (as in a guy's anus, for gay sex)".
Oh, that's hilarious. Thank you very much.
Torque is a stupid, meaningless figure in almost any situation, but particularly in a vehicle where there is a transmission involved.
It looks like someone crossbred a VW Bus with a panda bear then startled it.
Finally, I can have a bussy.
Truly a sad day in history
