wow, snobbish. Car visuals are subjective. They're all the same basic shape with minor variations. Ending up with another cars look seems inevitable. So each model should be taken with it's pros and cons without brand elitism. Looks nice enough and does the job at 1/3 of the price.
> Also, I wonder what buyers have on their minds, they buy a car that has a high likelihood of being deprecated, so likely they won't get any software updates or even worse, it could get bricked or have any issues and not having anybody that could fix it.
Some countries have regulation around how long parts are available, so hopefully that is a forcing factor for all buyers. Doesn't help if companies go under. I'd be very wary about buying any of these vehicles from niche players.
- dingaling 3y ago> Ending up with another cars look seems inevitable. EVs shouldn't really look like ICE cars, there's no need for a long bonnet / hood. Logically they should converge more on a cab-forward shape like an MPV / minivan, or even forward-control with the steering rack ahead of the front axle. So when one EV sedan shares its shape with a different ICE-mimicking EV, it's not because of technical reasons.
