Great for them, I guess. But those vehicles look terribly ugly to me.

Great for them, I guess. But those vehicles look terribly ugly to me.
- eppp 3y agoIts a commercial vehicle. They are utilitarian. They look better than all of the other 20 varieties of box van that are ubiquitous.
- YukiElectronics 3y agoThey do look a bit goofy, but I think that's part of their charm; kind of like a delivery van version of the Fiat 500e. Personally, I'd say it looks much nicer than almost every SUV and/or pickup truck on the market (I know it's not even the same category, though the same frame is also used for their pickup truck). It just saddens me to see the distance from bumper to front seat (for visibility reasons), though that could just be due to me not being American.
- Thorrez 3y agoApparently the visibility problem has an interesting solution: a window in the middle of the bumper. https://insideevs.com/news/657023/this-is-the-view-you-get-riding-shotgun-in-the-canoo-lifestyle-vehicle/ https://insideevs.com/news/657023/this-is-the-view-you-get-r...
- nerpderp82 3y agoOMG, it is steer by wire. No thanks!
- hbrav 3y agoThey don't look very aerodynamic. But that snubby front end could give them excellent visibility, if done correctly.
- SideburnsOfDoom 3y agoIf those are the Canoo vehicles that I'm thinking of, then the front visibly is excellent, but maybe also not how you expected: https://insideevs.com/news/657023/this-is-the-view-you-get-riding-shotgun-in-the-canoo-lifestyle-vehicle/ https://insideevs.com/news/657023/this-is-the-view-you-get-r... It's not a screen, just a tinted window.
- hbrav 3y agoThe diagonal visibility actually looks quite poor. You could easily hide a dog, or a small child, standing close to the vehicle in the direction it's turning towards.
- whalesalad 3y agoGiving me cyberpunk/robocop vibes kinda dig it actually. Not gorgeous by any means but unique for sure.
- digger495 3y agoIt's a Johnny Cab from Total Recall
- whalesalad 3y agoThe fare is 18 credits, please.
- paxys 3y agoThe purpose isn't to use them as a status symbol like most personal cars. They look perfectly fine as transit vans, or for a hundred other government or commercial use cases.
- xbar 3y agoTerribly Ugly might be the lifestyle that those Lifestyle Delivery Vehicles are delivering. Seriously, I would be happy to see those quirky things on the road.
- 83 3y agoI would buy the ugliest EV in the world if it was cheap and had great range. Sadly that vehicle doesn't exist yet.
- pivo 3y agoFunny, I was just thinking that they're refreshing different looking. Almost everything on the road today looks the same to me, I often have to look at the badge on a vehicle to know the manufacturer.
- _ph_ 3y agoI would buy one, if it were available in a "private car" config for a reasonable price. I would love to be able to see the road directly in front of the car through the lower window.

- beAbU 3y agoThankfully your opinions and beauty standards mean nothing on the internet. I for one think they look fantastic.
