Yeah but because it’s so high then the suspension has to be harder so it’s “sporty.” Then it rides way worse than a traditional sedan

I mean I get it, but 200hp in a hyper efficient commuter is pretty dang good. I drive an old car that makes that on a good day while getting 26mpg. I think it’s a perfectly reasonable amount of power when you’re getting 40+ mpg.

It's not about the power, the car is actually fine in that regard, especially around the city the torque is pretty impressive at low speeds. It's at high speeds on the highway, the car is horribly unstable and shaky, in addition to high speeds being worse for hybrids and not really making much of a difference anymore.

The Aztek is, unironically, redeemable with a few cosmetic mods. The front bumper is hideous, the fitment and ride height is awkward, and it suffered from that shitty early 2000s metallic paint on fiberglass/plastic that looked terrible the day it rolled out of the shop. If you can get a new bumper and redo the suspension, they don't look half bad. The cybertruck would need an entire redesign to look good.

The Aztek at least has some redeeming qualities and laid some groundwork for future crossovers.

I think the XM is one of the most fascinating pieces of design on the market.

I picture something like [this image](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NEN5OAoGajo/maxresdefault.jpg). And if you listen to BMW, that's basically who they were targeting as buyers. In that sense the design is spot on. The problem is it's a caricature of the target buyer. AFAIK Yianni isn't a douchebag, he just dresses in a way people associate with douchebags. The Urus is camp, it's aware of its vulgarity. The XM is kitsch in that it's over the top but feels unaware of it.

Agree 100%. I've narrowed it down to 2 things. 1. The front of the vehicle has fairly hard edges while the rear is almost round in comparison. 2. The taillights are too low. Most cars have taillights near the longitudinal middle of the car. The Santa Fe lights are out of that zone. If you look at South America, most taillights are somewhere within Venezuela and Peru. The Santa Fe lights are Argentina.

Amazing how hit or miss Hyundai is. Maybe it’s a good strategy to make something for everyone. Most manufacturers try to keep similar design language but you put Ioniq5 and 6 side by side and they look like different species.

Ioniq 6 should have been an ioniq 5 with a trunk. The ioniq 5 is such a timeless looking car.

Sukpreme@reddit

Had to scroll way too far to see this. The cybertruck is the obvious answer, but the difference is the cybertruck was designed to be controversial. Whereas the ioniq 6 was someone’s attempt to make a well designed car and it just looks like someone fused a temu Porsche with a dog taking a shit. Truly god awful looking car.

The Cullinan and the Bentayga. Both are so ugly and poorly styled. And I say that as a fan and owner of both brands. Every time I see a high spec Genesis GV90 in dark green I think how that is much closer to what a Bentley SUV should look like, and would be a great starting point style-wise instead of that bloated, chromed up PT Cruiser they came up with.

The Rolls Royce Cullinan. Have seen a couple and it genuinely looks like a GM product with a Rolls Royce body kit on the front. There are uglier cars, but $500k for something that looks as bad as the Cullinan does is pretty bad.

Controversial pick but I despise the C8 Corvette. I think it’s not only the ugliest Corvette they’ve ever made but I truly think it’s probably one of the top five ugliest new vehicles you can buy. Looks like it was designed by a child, the paintwork usually makes it look like a cheap hot wheels car, AND you have all the build quality of current GM? As someone who previously was in the market for a C5, I wouldn’t even vaguely entertain the C8.

I’m with you on this one. Nothing against moving the engine to the middle but I would rather have them sacrifice the trunk than make it look like this (I believe most of the little pointless tacked on trim pieces are there to distract from the awkward big butt proportions)

nissanfan64@reddit

Yea I don’t have much issue with the concept itself other than the fact the corvette used to be fairly practical with a decent size hatchback. It’s not in the same grand tourer class however a fun, cheap(ish), MR sports car isn’t a bad thing to be. But it’s SO damn ugly.

Stuff like the Cybertruck, the Aztek, the PT Cruiser etc. are all designed to intentionally look wild, so I think that lessens the impact of them in this way. So because of that, I’m going to go with the 90s Pontiac Trans Sport. The thing just looks sad. It probably came off the lot reeking of depression and preloaded with loose fast food wrappers already on the floor.

I get the Cybertruck, but I think it falls on the “different” category for me, not necessarily “ugly.” I’d have to say FJ Cruiser (or Nissan Cube/Scion xb. In close second). Each functional just not pleasing to the eye, and you rightfully pay a premium for Toyota furthering the ugly:dollar ratio.
