First one I’ve seen. As you’d expect it looks like they bred an X with a 3.

It’s less ugly than the X, I guess?

Why? Because they basically print money.

Looks equally ugly to me. The S was really good looking when it initially dropped, but everything since, including the refreshed S, has been uggo.

I’ve seen a few on the road now, but I live in the heart of techdorkland.

They could use recycled body dies from a Chevette, and the cult would line up.

Yeah, this is the one that they think will be the volume model. So I guess we'd better get used to it.

Couldn't tell you and I wouldn't if I could.

I don’t hate the 3, personally.

This thing just looks like a 7/8 scale X from the back,  but from the side it looks like a 3 in a fun house mirror.

And they'd be raving about improved production quality too.

These are ugly but they work. It’s just a Crossified 3, which was itself a success. The X is too big, too expensive, and holds styling cues from the aging S -- which I agree, is the only good looking model.

Better watch it, Musk fanbois will go all Scientology Dead Agent tactics on you, like Rich Rebuilds.

Ugl y egg cars in the name of aero are the way of the future. At least the engineering is really interesting, according to Munro.

The only thing that bugs me is how tiny the tail lights are. Sure the light surround is pretty big, but those tiny little lines make up the actual brake light. Not a fan.

I wonder what the size and proportion differences are between the Mach E 

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > WilliamsSW 07/28/2020 at 19:55

Hot take. The only good looking Tesla none of them. Even the S only looks good in silhouette

Luke warm take: I like it, and would gladly drive one.

But I can't afford one. So my opinion is moot.

My neighbor has one. I get the pleasure of looking at it every day not parked in her otherwise empty garage.

They are all over the place here, yeah all the Teslas are boring to look at and just morphed on photoshop from the original. Could they be less imaginative? I see the new one around and finally decided to take a picture, I just can’t get excited about them, Tesla makes appliances. The new one is a Y? Well it’s a tall 3, like an X6 BMW.

It does ... Which means it's ugly.

I could see driving a 3.  Not this one.

Charger must be outside I guess?  You'd think that would be garaged.

TysMagic > WilliamsSW 07/29/2020 at 10:02

no idea, I don’t see anything outside and it’s a tiny garage. They’re gone a lot so perhaps it sits on a charger elsewhere?

Probably it’s being charged at work or whatever.

An underrated benefit of an electric car is that you could probably charge it away from home most of the time, as long as you don’t drive too much.  So free power. Which is nice.
