Aston or not, all teslas look like a variation of a travel soap box. True artist doesn't repeat himself, crowds though demand repetitions. Other than that electric vehicles are fun to drive.
It's a car for chrissake!! It needs to have a hollow body with a roof for people to sit in there protected from the elements to drive. How do you want it designed to be? A mushroom?? LOL
tesla isn’t changing their model shapes I think for two reasons: Brand/Marketing - the car is meant to be timeless (proof that the electric car can last forever) and that you don’t need a cycle of upgrades that the other automotive companies rely on. Resources - Tesla doesn’t have the deep design bench Ford or GM have. All their money goes to battery technology.
Even the roadster which still isn't in production, looks like a 5 to 10 year old design now. Still looks very cool though.
I agree to a point, it's boring and uninspiring AF to see the same shapes out there but it's also incredibly wasteful to retool and redesign. Demand drives changes so once sales plateau/plummet, Tesla will have to drop the marketing excuses and redraw. this you bro? Ironically, one of the longest production runs.
Man, that looks GREAT to me! Absolutely stunning. Why on earth did they take something that good looking out of production?!?! It might look even better with a spoiler on the back.
I have a goals journal and that car has been on it for years. Now if they'll only get on with producing the damn thing. I never put a $250k deposit down on one because my patience level generally speaking is terrible, but I'm anxious to see how that roadster will feel like in real-life terms. My Plaid already blows people's minds, so I can't imagine what that car will feel like. We had a family thanksgiving celebration at a nearby relative's house in November, and I took various family members on a little 0 - 100 run for shits and giggles, and they described the feeling as "insane and nauseating at the same time". It was funny because I had my teenage son in the back seat with a couple of his female cousins on that day as a special request. I specifically looked back at all of them and said, "All of the caps are screwed on your water bottles tight right? No open containers whatsoever, correct? And they were like "Yeah, we're good." So I was like, fuck it... I threw it to the floor in Ludicrous+ mode or whatever it's called these days. It only lasted a few seconds and we hit just shy of 100 MPH. I looked back at them after it was over and they were all screaming like idiots, and totally soaking wet. I lost it for a second and said, "I told you to make sure you had NO OPEN CONTAINERS!!" They looked at me and said, "But we're soaked because the acceleration sucked the water out of the cup in your center console and it sprayed all of us in the back seat!. And sure enough, I looked in the Yeti insulated cup in my center console and all the water and little ice cubes that were in it before we took off were totally gone. So I said what any responsible parent or adult would say in that moment.... "Oh... Sorry... My Bad."
OMG!!! In a car so fast like that, you will never get a ticket!!! No police car would be fast enough to catch you to give you one. LOL
