Not really, no. From what I read the first shipments are kind of a stunt because they still haven’t worked out their production issues. They are having to do a lot of work on each vehicle by hand. Which means each unit is going to have costs like a Bentley but be expected to sell for the price of a Ford.
I really think this is a Potemkin delivery.
Did anyone mention that it looks like a video game car but not from a good game, like one of those racing games that came free with the console in the 90s? If I see one on the side of the road I am going to hear a voice in my head scream "Wipeout! Radical dude!"
I cannot wait to point and laugh like Nelson Muntz from The Simpsons every time I see one of these fugly pieces of shit on the road.
It's contending against the PT cruiser for dumbest looking vehicle on the road.
I actually felt like the PT Cruiser and the Pontiac Aztek fell well within the “so bad it’s good” category. To be transparent, I’ll also disclose I also like the Volkswagen Thing and I love dune buggies.
PT Cruiser is really low on that list, IMO. The Nissan Cube is a thing. The Pontiac Aztek is a thing (although I have a soft spot for that one in particular). Heck, even the last few model years of Prius were absolutely hideous to look at (The 2023 model year looks like they finally decided to give it a more sleek and sporty look with the front and rear redesign, a welcome change).
Some of us like the look... Still not worth the price though.
Looks are for whores. If this is a better way to do cars go ahead and do it. I am making my jokes but that isn't me saying it's stupid.
Looks like a nightmare to repair.
