Desperation for clicks?
Desperation for clicks?
I have trouble imagining any modern boardroom approving something so unhinged. In today’s industry, cars built out of emotion alone quickly get hammered down in favor of sensible profit-making mall-finders.
I work in an ad agency. In the early days just about everyone the the office is a VP. Even those doing grunt work. They didn’t want to pay high salaries, so they gave meaningless titles to lure and fill vacant seats.
From the dimension of “don’t-know-shit-about-anything”.

Yet another sensationalist. Yes, Tesla has problems. But, most industry experts agree, they are still far ahead of everyone else. A single offering from Audi or Porsche is not enough to proclaim “Tesla killer”. They are nothing but a single offering. There is no investment in charging infrastructure. There is no…
I don’t think there was ever a single military procurement program that doesn’t follow this pattern. Same can be said of any business or corporation where too many people get to make decisions. It’s the nature of working with other people: everyone has an opinion.
Similarly, yours being so vague and open, same can be said of it.
The sad state of Jalopnik.
But less sidewall deflection with heavy lateral loads. This is F1, not Superstreet. The tier 1 engineers will find a way to make 18s work and weigh less.
Head on over to thedrive.com, founded and operated by founders of the old Jalopnik. This place is redone to appeal to the masses and in the dumpster.
Because Carlos Ghosn is a penny pinching cheap bastard.
And the lawyers end up the winners.
Uncertain? Murkier? Based on the press release I saw, it looks like certain doom.
Agreed. The concept looks original. The production look like a bad copy from China of other manufacturers’.
There are several cars mashed into one here (in typical KIA/Hyundai fashion). The headlights are GMC/Cadillac-ish. Grill is Rover-ish, like you pointed out. The greenhouse and D-pillar is Volvo, as are the vertical taillights (XC90). KIA and Hyundai/Genesis know their targets—the pretenders, those who want to appear…
“Mustang inspired” can also mean the styling and/or driving dynamics is done in keeping with the spirit of the Mustang. It doesn’t necessarily mean the hardware is based on the car meet wrecking drunken horse.
It doesn’t look good. You’re just getting used to fugly.
Doesn’t sound very good either. Sounds like a “tuned” 90s Honda with a fart can.
Touch mine and see what happens.
