Geez, now the New York Times is starting to hate V-8 eight cars.
What will they do next?
Start kicking the little puppies?

My cynical take is this:
The New York Times (owner, manager, editors and staff) don’t want
the Average Joe/Josephine to have cars with V-8 engines.
They want the “unwashed masses” forced onto city buses/trains/subways...
so gasoline prices will be stable or even drop.
So the New York Times crowd can fill the gas tanks of their stable of
V-8 powered vehicles.
This is just like the interviews I’d see with up-scale drivers in
Los Angeles at the gas pumps when gasoline prices were rising.
Usually, the comment was that “well, if more people get on the
buses and trains, the freeways won’t be so crowded”.
In other words, get the trash off the freeways so that I and my
V-8 (or V-10 or V-12 in LA) can blaze down the autobahns of Los Angeles.
Gotta’ get to the creative-vision meeting at my movie studio, dontcha know?
