I am not sure that "smash" is the best verb for this sentence...

At least it revives the name of a famous old British marque. Reminds me of
the "Indian" motorcycles they were making such a big deal about. Other than
two wheels and an internal combustion engine, what is there in common with
"real" Indian motorcycles? What is the point of reviving the name? Are there
no more good names to use? I certainly hope that if someone decides to start
building a new car named "Sprite" or "Midget" or even "Spridget" there is
something to justify the use of the name ;-)
