Car styling being somewhat static does not imply that Scientific Progress is waning. You could say something similar about clothing styles: comparing clothing styles between 1980 and 1990 there was a lot of difference. Comparing between 2010 and 2020 - not much difference. This has a lot more to do with economics and tastes than scientific progress (or lack thereof).
