This. There aren’t that many shapes and sizes of EVs to pick from today - just a few small crossovers, plus hatchbacks and the luxury EVs, let alone in 2018. And California is a ZEV state with better selection of EVs.

Also the side pillars often contain airbags which makes them thicker. I do wonder about the trade off between powerful side air backs and poor visibility caused by thick pillars. Do side airbags need to be as powerful/big? 

For Honda, this means interior design is about the people inside the vehicle, leading to interiors free of visual clutter with a focus on thin pillars, a low cowl and a large greenhouse for excellent visibility, enabling the driver and occupants to see the road and the environment around them.

I hear you. We have three kids and an off-the-grid family family 300 miles away at the end of a 10 mile dirt road with a decent creek crossing. We’ve been driving a Chevy Bolt and then a Kia Niro EV for about a year. Charged each off a 120V outlet. With 250+miles of range, each covers all of our daily driving needs.…

But how will we know about imminent threats?

Can you see out of Car B or are the A and B pillars thick?

Think of companies like Lordstown and Rivian, or Nikola and Fisker, who’ve yet to revolutionize their segment.

Can you charge at home?

This.

True. Maybe the Ocean Beach parking lot.

Okay, I’ll bite. Results are going to fall into two categories:

The concept does read a little like a Toyota designer took a Mirai and RAV4 and combined them.

Yes, it does.

Yes, they did.

Why you think the beltline kick-up works well? Very curious.

Whoa. All I can see is Honda Civic, an old one:

You’re my hero. Bring back outward visibility!

Gotta kill outward visibility too!

Agreed.

Whoa. That’s great logic. Would you care to run for political office? Pretty please.
