Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What is ugly to others, may be beautiful to you.
I’ve been told that I love ugly cars. Like the Pontiac Aztec, the Subaru Baja, and the Honda element. You’ll find people either love or hate them, but I commonly love the cars that most people find polarizing. And the cyber truck is indeed one of the polarizing cars that I like too.
I had to look up those three cars and they’re all pretty basic. They shouldn’t be polarizing at all. If you want something out there and modern, the Aptera’s shape is purely dictated by aerodynamics.
I have a preorder in haha, and I really want them to succeed. I love their aerodynamic purpose, and I don’t think it looks half bad, but people cringe when I show them.
I don’t care if it’s a lil ugly, I care that it can go about 2-3x as far as a standard EV sedan on the same amount of batteries before factoring in 20-40 free miles a day from the freakin sun.
Based on your message, the reason why you love them is because so many people hate them aka polarizing. This is real-world edge lord crap. If you truly loved em, you’d say why you love them that goes beyond just being the opposite of the majority for the sake of it.
For me, it’s honestly not because they are polarizing. Id say I often enjoy the function over the form. My comment was mostly the main point, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
For the Aztec, I liked the flattened/angled back, when everything else was becoming more rounded. I also liked the early Prius design for the same reason.
For the Baja, a light AWD car with an itty bitty truck bed for muddy/dirty crap was cool.
For the element, its a box on wheels, the doors open opposite and they open wide, making them really convenient for packing a lot of things or people in them really quickly. Vans are nice for the same reason, but the element to me was just more aesthetically pleasing than a van.
And for the cyber truck, I honestly love the idea of an electric off road vehicle with ugly ass stainless steel panels for the body. Hit a rock or a tree? Oh well, carve that panel off and tack weld a replacement to it. Paint? Why?
That being said, the criticism of the result of the cyber truck, I fully agree with. It delivered on none of the promises of ruggedness or capability. It was a flop. And Elon is a fuckwad.
