According to what I recently learned about car design, nobody, it was imposed to them for safety reasons :/

Yeah, that would make sense since I can't see all three car makers making the same mistake and they're pretty much all independent from each other.

Somebody who loves Meth-Mugshots.

Look them up, compare them. Then you'll see what I mean.

If you're talking about the taillights, yes they are so high the rear almost looks inverted.

Its all very sad, a Jeep looking like a car, that new pathfinder is a tall car now. New cars are mostly awful.

Don't forget about IWS. Inverted Window Syndrome.

Bull, its all about how you deal with the regulations. You can be lazy and come up with the shit above, or you can actually make an attempt.

Oh, I'm not saying automakers don't have their share of blame for the disasters above... Because another thing I recently learned about automotive design is that overdesigned cars end up with weird asses. Take Hyundai's design language, for example, all dramatic cuts and creases to create the notion of aerodynamics and speed, which works for the front and sides of a car, but the only way to continue said lines on the rear is by sticking something not too different from an anus in the middle of the rear hatch, and they're sure as hell not doing it. So they end up with something like this:

Haha, just look at that... There's ugly, and there's the HB20's ass. So funny! Anyways, Ford, with a not too different design language did much better by dramatically slanting downards the Fiesta's lines at the rear. It's not my favorite design, but it's not the tragedy that's the HB20 booty.

Can't argue with that! The HB20 just looks retarded.

We get it Hyundai, you guys don't make knock off Jaguars anymore, now stop trying so hard!
