The problem with EVs isn't even (all) about ICE vs. EV, it's that automakers WANT to make bland uninteresting cars to appeal to neurotypicals
>>28971598Dunno about other automakers, but Elon deliberately made Teslas look bland because a) he's autistic as fuck, and autists cannot into esthetics; b) as a trojan horse to gradually desensitize people to the idea of uniform-looking autonomous transportation pods.
>>28971598How do you explain the F150 lightning, or Silverado EV, or Blazer EV, or the other cars that are otherwise normal but just EV?They're not exactly good selling vehicles despite being nearly identical to their ICE counterparts.
>>28971598
>>28971605>electric pickups Nobody wants them >Blazer EV "In December 2023, Chevrolet paused the Blazer EV's production due to many software issues, charging problems, and battery trouble. Production and sales resumed in March 2024."
>>28971605the average buyer of those vehicles thinks people who drive sedans is gay. driving an ev truck would be equivalent to trans surgery for them
>>28971607>2022Old battery tech.
>>28971654The newer ones are even worse knowing the corporations
>>28971654That's literally the point though? You have to be retarded to dump 50k$ on something with a smartphone's life cycle.
>>28971607Sounds like they got fucked by Chevrolet somehow, possibly due to powertrain going out of warranty. Generally, here in yurostan, electric cars have powertrain warranties (which include the main battery) way longer than general ones. Ex. you have 5 years general warranty, but 8-10 years powertrain warranty (admittedly, conditioned by doing the yearly check-up at an official shop).
>>28971651>>28971647Okay, nissan leaf, chevy volt/bolt/dolt, fiat 500 EV, all the other compact EVs that aren't pickups or SUVs.
why cant wrenchfags into battery chemistry
>>28971607>buying nickel manganese cobalt in 2022keek
>bland uninteresting cars to appeal to neurotypicalsIt seems more like the opposite. They overload the car design to emphasize how different the EV are.Look at the Honda E with its digital mirrors and 7 screens in a 3.9m car and other crap like hidden door handles.Or the headlights on the Renault 5.
>>28971598the biggest problem is that they need to be pigfat to accomodate for the battery. comically large wheels to deal with the weight too. Nobody would care about them looking like an econonbox if they were slim
>>28971847sold well. your point?
>>28971859This.Also light bars front and back, illuminated logos, generally riced out LED shit. Front grills with ugly plastic covers.
>>28971598I think the Honda looks good
>>28971936That's what bothers me about the ID. Polo. At least it might be fixable.
>>28972135looks like a cartoon bank robber
>>28971859>>28971936Those aren't unique these days, it's just modern generic car design.
