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 :-(

2020-04-27 Thread Peri Hartman via EV
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 ?

Peri

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.  That would definitely have to be an acquired taste.  The place you'd
have to acquire it would be Hell.

I'm not surprised that Toyota had a hand, or maybe some other appendage,  in
this.  Harley Earl was the GM stylist responsible for the 1959 Cadillac's
spectacular tail fins.  AFAIC, if Earl were alive today, the current Toyota
Prius and this EV are what he'd draw up the morning after a binge.

%Both evdl.org archives show post went through OK. Perhaps Brent's
email host or evdl feed added the second incorrect link, as I noticed
