I really don't like the looks of that car - in or out.

That is such an uninspiring design... makes me want to drive an old 80's Toyota - or something.... At least with the Toyota, you wouldn't have to make excuses.

I don't mind the outside. It's not as dramatic as the Model S, but it's clean and the proportions are pretty good.
I'm puzzled about why it's not a hatchback. I think that's going to be problematic. The interior is a little odd, but I suspect it will grow on you as you get used to it. One nice thing--map pockets! They've also gone with an integrated center console, which (now that I am used to the Model S) I actually don't prefer. But the simple dash opens the interior up again and makes up for the console intrusion. One other thing I noticed; no fixed piston calipers on the rear (though the front still seems to have them). |

That is heinous looking. It would be OK if it were a hatchback and the fugly came with utility. But it's not.
The dash doesn't really bother me. It's not meant to be sporty. It's an appliance. I imagine it is going to be wildly successful. |

I'll take the regular car manufacturers' electric options over this... but I'm good with gassers for another decade or so.
