Also, doubt I can fit both my wife and dog in that. Guess she has to stay home. Not saying which one she is that I'm thinking about.

So, that name. Are they suggesting that it is nevera going to be built?

Or, how about, you are living in nevera, nevara land if you think you can afford this thing?

Then again, maybe the name is a hint the car doesn't drive as sporty as it looks. "La nevera" is Spanish for "refrigerator". A cool car? Mmmm maybe.

Remember when GM wondered why Spanish speaking people weren't buying the Chevy Nova? Go figure, "no va" is Spanish for "it doesn't work".

It doesn't *go.
Strictly speaking, the verb "ir" is "to go". But, it can also be "to function" as in to work or to run.

No, I'm not a Spanish prof, just trying to learn the language. I've been too cheap to buy a dictionary, so I refer to www.spanishdict.com for word usage.

Here's a couple of examples they use to illustrate "ir" as "to function".

El portatil va bien. The laptop works well.

Mi carro ha ido sin problema durante anos. My car has run without an issue for years.

Hopefully, some day in the distant future, we will be saying the following about our Rivians: Mi camion ha ido sin problema durante muchos anos.
