Many vehicles come and go. Most are duds like the Swiftsure but a few stand out like the everyone else. So this month, we'll be looking at the Arrow to see where it stands out among the crowd. Is this new Philadelphia Motors a keeper? Or should it rust away with time?
I was giddy when I heard we were testing Philadelphia Motors Arrow. On the track this thing is fast. How fast? Notice there are no pictures on this page? That fast! This is one of the fastest Shooting Brake I've ever been in. As impressive as that sounds, the 79 hp @ 3258RPMs 4778 cc I3 engine is even more impressive. Peddle to the metal, this baby will do 72 mph easily. And in a straight line we hit a 32.013s 0 to 60 mph! We found that with 103 lb-ft of torque this machine can tow an impressive 22 lbs. The Philadelphia Motors Arrow handles smoothly and can really turn a corner for a Shooting Brake. While it is certainly not a race car, it can handle any real world situation you throw at it. Mommy can I keep it? Please?!
Philadelphia Motors's interior design stands out among its peers. The material selection is fantastic, each seat is crafted by fine artisans, and the ride quality outstanding. Arrow is also full of features other drivers can only dream about. You will not want to leave the inside of this vehicle.
Amazingly spacey the Philadelphia Motors Arrow can bost 51 cu-ft interior and cargo space. This vehicle is massive compared to most. It's one of our top choices when it comes to practicality.
The manufacturing process of Philadelphia Motors has really found something. The Arrow seems like a hand built car through and through. The workmanship is amazing. Only fine artisans could produce something like this.
The Philadelphia Motors Arrow is a reliable car that we would trust our dear old grandmother with. These things are almost bulletproof.
Here is a pro-stock tip. If the Philadelphia Motors Arrow sells any meaningful number of vehicles, be sure to buy fuel stocks! It's that bad! The Arrow gets an abysmal 10.5 mpg! This is not the vehicle for trying to save money on fuel expenses.
In some sense the Philadelphia Motors Arrow reminds us of an over protective parent. One that wraps you in damage proof forcefield that prevents all interaction with the outside world. While the Arrow isn't that safe. It is still quite comforting to know that nothing can hurt you.
When it comes to Shooting Brake there should be only one vehicle to think of. Have you thought of it? Did you read this article? It's the Philadelphia Motors Arrow the best Shooting Brake I have ever driven! And the best one you've ever read about!
