I see multiple Cybertrucks every day driving around LA.

I'll admit the design has grown on me, and we need more mainstream vehicles challenging the boring design "norms".

I would love to see a cross between the Model Y and Cybertruck in the future.

I'd argue that we need to start treating cars like the utilitarian objects they are and stop associating our personalities with them.


We need to start treating PCs like the utilitarian objects they are and bring back beige cases.


Are people getting in the tanks, I mean PCs, and driving them around on public roads, literally unable to see what's right in front of them?

Freeze peach to drive my unsafe taaaank. Americuuuuh.

I really wonder if people are unaware of how absurd, stupid, and unsafe many American vehicles are, or if it really is just down to selfishne-, er, I mean individuality.


Car designs have converged because there are certain properties that are better than others for safety, performance, efficiency, and so on. Those concerns are arguably much more important than aesthetics or the ability to express one’s individuality.

Not really the case for PCs.


You could still have cars in every color, and yet they're all black or gray.


80s home computer design please!


Fractal Design is always a nice option for that


I can't wait. I'm so tired of this RGB gamer aesthetic bullshit.


I find Kia/ Hyundai designs more pleasing and “out of the box” than most other automakers. Of course they have some failures like the Ioniq 6 sedan, the thing looks like the hate child between a 911 and an MB C300.


The newer generation Honda's are SHOCKINGLY nice looking. I'm a huge fan of the new Land Cruiser too, I would happily bring one of those home.


I drive an Ioniq 6 and love the design. To each their own…


The Ioniq 6 is SO CLOSE to being beautiful.

The concept version was awesome. Somehow the production version got tweaked just enough to break the effect for me. I had no idea that Space Porche and Standard Sedan were so close in my mental space.


For me the first reaction to a design is the one that stays, is very unlikely that it will “grow up” on me afterwards. I don’t know why I despise the cybretruck and I love the Lotus sprit when they’re almost the same lines saving the humongous-ness of the former. Now the interior I hate all teslas, as I see it “minimalism” is an easy exit for lack of creativity.


I like their designs well enough, but I’d hardly call them “out of the box”. Slightly edgy.
