I think the Fiat Multipla is distinct in that it is unlovably ugly.
I can get behind the ugliness of vehicles like the Cybertruck because it just looks absurd, but the Fiat is just grotesque.
- gnode 7y agoI wonder if this is because the curvature of the Multipla makes us interpret it as organic and deformed, like a teratoma; it makes us feel disgust. The Cybertruck is overtly synthetic and brutalist. It's to be admired for its impressiveness, not its beauty.
- big_chungus 7y agoLooks like it was manufactured by the soviets. And oh my gosh I was hungry, but looked up teratoma, and am no longer hungry. Not safe for life. Yike.
- dmoy 7y agoLest anyone be (like me) confused at how something about a car could make you want to lose your lunch. TIL teratoma has nothing to do with cars. I recommend not looking at pictures.
- pluma 7y agoFor those still unclear: it's a type of tumor that basically grows things in places they're not normally supposed to be. "Things" including cartilage, hair and teeth.
- kome 7y agoI like the Fiat Multipla! It is cute, it looks like a beluga. De gustibus...
