The Nissan Cube annoyed me enough at it was.

At least the Nissan Cube was unique. I'm slightly more than mildly infuriated that "shrunken SUV" seems to be the new standard vehicle shape. Hate this "crossover" trend. lol

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 6 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Spacious and luxurious without being a huge tank on the road. What's not to like?

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 18 points 11 months ago (2 children)

If that's your thing, you do you. I'm not against them existing, I just think they're ugly and excess and wouldn't want to drive one, personally. Half or more of the crossover styles, IMO, look like rollerskates, lol, and I just can't take them seriously (once you see it, you can't unsee it).

[–] Arfman@aussie.zone 5 points 11 months ago

I agree with the you do you thing but the manufacturers no longer seem interested in making other kinds of cars these days

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I just don't know why anyone cares, you can't see the thing when you're using it anyway.

[–] NewNewAccount@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is why I don’t care that I’m so ugly because I can’t see my own face.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Exactly! Let the rest of the world deal with it, it functions properly for me.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 11 months ago

Yeah, pretty much anything is better than SUV as commuter vehicle. It only became a thing in the first place because of poorly-crafted environmental regulation.

[–] B0rax@feddit.org 4 points 11 months ago

Spacious? That is not true for most SUVs or crossovers when compared to their non-suv variant. (Looking especially at you, Mercedes!)

Luxurious? The non-suv variants are just as luxurious, no difference there.

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

"Shrunken SUV" or "Took a normal 2- or 4-door and injected it with experimental growth hormones."

I swear I see one once a week that would make sense and carry the same number of people and stuff at half the overall vehicle volume.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 37 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's a car-shaped car, idk what the problem is. Were you expecting tentacles?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I was expecting something that looks at least vaguely like a nautilus.

[–] independantiste@sh.itjust.works 27 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

I mean... Don't you think this is a bit of a far fetch? A car couldn't look like this it would be ridiculous!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

You're a sassy little gnome.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Like with stripes or a big round shell that it protrudes from? Don't get me wrong, it's a cool-looking animal, but it would look dumb as hell if someone tried to make a car actually look like one imo. Maybe a spaceship or a deep-sea submersible, but not a car.

[–] krimson@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago (4 children)

I used to be able to differentiate car brands in the blink of an eye, each brand had pretty distinct features. Nowadays it's a pretty boring blend, apart from a few luxury brands perhaps.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Well... the Cybertruck has unique physical features. They're not features I'd want in a vehicle, but...

Anyway, I was looking here and yeah. Very boring. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a46550349/2024-editors-choice/

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I saw a cybertruck in person the other day, pictures cannot fully convey how fucking hideous they are

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Stainless steel, sharp edges, it'll take your finger off with ease if you're not careful. All traits I look for in a good kitchen knife.

[–] kindenough@kbin.earth 4 points 11 months ago

You can still do that nowadays, if you give a fuck. I don't.

[–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Hyundai/kia are doing really well recently compared to everyone else, their designs are really recognizable and stand out a lot. Some of them aren't the best but it's better than everything looking identical

[–] krimson@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago
[–] Woht24@lemmy.world -3 points 11 months ago

You just don't know cars that well then

[–] francisfordpoopola@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Dumb question... What's the issue? I'm a Venza loving freak so I could be biased.

[–] thejml@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] 58008@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Is it supposed to? I mean, a Jaguar doesn't look like a jaguar either 🤔 But if they market it as being designed around a nautilus' shape, then yeah it sucks haha

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

You know what? Sue them ALL for false advertising!!! I bet this thing can't even travel underwater.

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Eh. Just looks like any other oversized SUV to me. I miss when cars had distinct designs...

[–] independantiste@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

If Audi's headlights and if BMW's front grill's tumor continued growing had a baby (?)

[–] Stoposto@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Spot on 😆

[–] rolling_resistance@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Looks like a wankpanzer to me.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

cephalopod

........a wut?

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Is it the hubcaps? It's the hubcaps isn't it.

[–] BigTrout75@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Nice oversized hatchback with no internal space

[–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

another mildly infuriating thing: the diagonal bar on the capital n looks thicker than the other lines! well, at least it isn't barely visible (used to be really thin with full hinting on ubuntu)
