I don't know, looks like something out of a science fiction movie. I kind of like it. I certainly think it looks better than the Cyber truck. However, after reading up on it, I now understand why the cyber truck looks the way it does and I kind of like the idea of a thick stainless steel body that will probably outlive me. I recently put down a deposit on one, of course that means my reservation will probably come up in about 5 years :-( April 27, 2020 12:22 AM, "EVDL Administrator via EV" wrote: > Styling of any object is a matter of personal taste, and I won't try to > claim mine is any more valid than anyone else's, but all I can say is ... > wow.

Re: [EVDL] EVLN: 2025 subaru, tmc Evoltis> cyber-wackadoodle/paraquat-dream design
My focus is on the practical side. Yet, I wonder what automotive styling will evolve to. It's hard not to notice that the large front grill isn't needed any more. What will the designers do when they realize they can do something entirely different with that space ? What about the rest of the car ? Components can be put pretty much anywhere, meaning the whole overall design could change radically. To put this in perspective, I'm thinking of the transformation from horse drawn coaches to the more-or-less modern automotive style starting in the '30s. At first, the cabin looked a lot like the old fashioned coach. The motor stuck on the front, the coach itself barely changed from the prior version. Slowly the design became more integrated and the huge fenders disappeared, etc. With EVs, what will we see next ?
