2020 E53 AMG
It's pretty obvious that:

1. There were problems initially with 48v packs (IE '18 or '19).
2. The issues were resolved and seemed to be a deficiency in design/software.
3. Traditionalists (of which I'm generally one) hate the hybrid aspect of the car, don't consider it a 'real AMG' and blow it all out of proportion long after the problem has resolved.
4. My car is fine and I'm not seeing a pile l, or really any 48v issues on the board.
5. So we have non-owners lobbying against the car and seemingly satisfied owners since the early problems. This feels like a classic car debate to me.
