ugly overpriced meme turd
cool
If i had the money i'd buy a used model S and early roadster instead though.
The tall windshield looks neat
Very precisely aimed at the overly smug, "LOOK AT ME I'M RICH AND SAVING THE WORLD" crowd.
>>14442594
Yeah if you like getting blinded when the sun is only half down. You really only need horizontal visibility. Unless a meteorite is hurling toward you you don't need to see up there.
It looks like a DBZ character
>>14442627
I didn't say practical. Just neat.
>>14442627
>put down sun visor
wew lad
More unreliable and poorly built than Fiat.
That's some kind of achievement.
>>14442627
>You really only need horizontal visibility
Camaro pls go
>>14442574
I'm glad they finally got rid of the fake grille. It doesn't need one, so why put a big black spot and make it look like it has one from far away?
>>14442652
>le fiat is bad meme
>>14442717
This.
Tesla grills look like a shota penis with phimosis
>>14442579
how is it a meme?
>>14442731
Oh fuck, I can't unsee it now.
>>14442717
>fake grille
>>14442731
I honestly think it looked way better with the fake grille. Now the front end is just so fucking odd.It needs something in that big white space
>>14442717
Because it looks good and creates familarity. One reason why the Model S sells so well for an electric car is because it looks normal, not like a spaceship.
>>14442757
>It needs something in that big white space
The license plate?
On par with the X6/GLEc for most disgusting man made object
>>14442740
yes
>>14442759
>generic small windows generic XBOX HUEG front grill generic angry looks generic slanted headlights.
yeah, it really does look generic and boring as fuck alright.
>>14442757
the fake chinese tesla looks better desu senpai
>>14442837
Some people want to drive electric cars without looking like gigantic contrarian hipster twats.
Is it really an 'SUV' though?
>>14442998
It's a fucking crossover with "falcon wing" rear doors.
>>14442640
what visor? the fucking glass goes over your head.
or is the viser like 3 feet long?
All crossovers should be destroyed and their owners raped before the masses.
>>14443003
I hope the doors catch on with other cars. They're nice as shit for close parking spaces.
>>14442717
cars without grills look weird. they need to come up with a better look.
no more engine upfront, no need for a large radiator, ok. make a better design.
all around wrap headlights
exposed bumper
plain cover looks bland.
plus, shit still needs venting. car still has a conventional AC right? needs cooling for that.
electric motors are water cooled right? it has a small radiator still.
Find me one good looking car without a grill.
>>14443024
Dat roof box retardation though. If you have problems parking, stop buying such huge cars.
Saw one driving around for the first time last week, definitely up there in the hideous abomination bracket, idk what they are thinking
>>14443021
women in mid-size SUV's are the fucking worst
>>14443038
Just saying it looks more convenient for loading purposes compared to normal doors.
>>14443038
i wonder what kind of weight you can put on that whilst it is extended
>>14443053
What loading purposes? Fridges? If it's so genius, then why hasn't anyone ever had issues with conventional doors apart from morbidly obese lardasses?
>>14443053
i bet they would sell more if it had normal doors on it
Why the fuck did they make a goddamn crossover?
why not a wagon? or something like a subaro. a raised car platfrom.
what the fuck? what is its point?
it cant offroad
tow capacity si shit, and whats the range 50 miles? great roadtrip!
Tesla lost all my respect by making a fucking crossover.
should have made a proper station wagon, or something utilitarian. like an Element
>>14443060
Yes, fridges, boxes, CRT televisions, cat trees. Normal doors are fine. Nothing genius, just different. Don't give a shit that it's on the Model X, but it does give it something distinctive compared to other generic CUVs.
>>14443073
But that wouldn't sell to people that want to attract atention while still buying shit that's popular.
>>14443073
Because CUVs are what consumers want. Point of Tesla is to sell electric cars that appeal to the masses to make profit eventually. Down the line, you might get another Roadster.
>>14442587
I don't think there are many used model S's available
>>14443091
Wat. They're everywhere

Overpriced car with a cheapo interior.
>>14443015
Just use a small umbrella as a visor
>>14443021
I believe that everything wrong in the modern age, all sins of the current generation of mankind and the errors of our civilization can be represented with the crossover car class.
There is no other product that represents the shallowness, complacency and self-disrespect with which we shat all over the industry, economy, education, art and philosophy than a car that tries to be sporty, offroad and family based or even luxury all in the same time. A car trend made by and for people who constantly try to make 2+2 equal 5 and refuse to believe that you are entitled to having their cake and eating it too.
>>14442983
Isnt that the reason people buy electric cars to begin with?
>>14443199
t. mini countryman owner
>>14443030
Even cars with internal combustion engines didnt all have grills, especially those with the engine in the back.
>but muh styling conventions
>muh fake grills, vents, gloryholes
>tfw no grill
>>14443053
Sliding doors are superior for that. Thats why most vans have them.
>>14442594
That is something Citroën did in their sub-20k€ cars 5 years ago. Kinda got used to it already.
>>14443030
Grills are overrated
>>14444529
I quite like how these things look, and they're cheap around where I live.
So then the only question left to answer would be, are they gud?
>>14444550
>Mazda
As long as it isnt a complete rustbucket
>>14442574
Ugly as hell. The concept and Model S look far better.
>>14443049
To be fair all Russians drive like that.
>>14442627
Thats why its shaded dick nose, most likely adjusts to sunlight too cause its 2016 and that exists
Its probably the best daily driver ever built.
I actually think musk is right about this.
>>14443073
lol
lol
>>14443049
The people in that fucking gif are so oblivious to their surroundings.
why does it have to look so fuck ugly
>>14442574
It's a crossover. It could cost $500 run for 1,000 miles on a single bottle of vegetable oil and I still wouldn't give a toss.

Why are Coal Powered cars popular, again?
Oh, that's right... FEELZ
Next time I see a Whole Food or some shit place, and I invariably see a Tesla, I think I'll compliment the owner for their Coal Fired Car and watch them EXPLODE.
it's a necessary evil for tesla to make mad dosh because crossovers sell like crazy in america.
the styling is......it looked better in renderings than in real life, there's too much negative space on that front area with little definition.
the crossover based on the model 3 might be fun though, because it'll be comparatively light and small
i still want a model 3 wagon tho
>>14443073
Because it is what well off status obsessed people want.
Also they have a range of 200-300 miles depending on battery and driving habits.
>>14445595
Funny thing is that coal is going by the way side. It's all natural gas these days.
Hopefully soon it'll be renewables taking over.
>Tesla is an investment in the future
Lol, at least I hope so, cuz I'm about to work for them
>>14445595
Bcuz ur a faggot, also needing to charge batteries for several hours after doing a limited number of miles.
>>14445595
I'll take Thermal Efficiency for $400 Alex.
Internal Combustion Engines(ICE) are horribly inefficient. Coal power plants, even the worst ones in the western world, are significantly more efficient. Electric motors are very efficient. So are batteries and electric power transmission.
So an EV charging from just coal power plants. Is responsible for less CO2 grams per mile than even a Prius.
>>14445761
also it's crazy fucking dirt cheap
are current electric rates, it's basically $8 for 200 miles of electric range
>>14445761
>Coal power plants, even the worst ones in the western world, are significantly more efficient.
Maybe at the source, but you have to consider the losses from getting all that electricity from the plant to the battery.
>Is responsible for less CO2 grams per mile than even a Prius.
That might be so, but CO2 is only a small part of pollutants coming from coal plants. The worst of which is probably mercury.
>>14445814
and gasoline just springs up out of the ground under gas stations?
not to mention that electricity is all domestically sourced, unless you live in a shit country. also no pesky petrodollar problems. So you don't have to get any pesky foreign and defense policy problems for an EV.
>>14443024
It's a fucking minivan with doors that go up instead of sideways.
>>14442930

>>14443232
probably why that engine always overheated

>>14444550
Yup I had one as my first car. Sure, I had to do a rolling start on it twice a day as the battery didn't hold charge and I was too cheap to replace it, but aside from that it was a gr8 car
>>14442594
I don't know why more cars don't have this

the falcon wings was retarded and what caused it to get delayed for over two years. Regular doors worked for the Model S, it would have been just fine with this thing too.
