There's something about the front of the R1T that I despise. It looks like a child designed it, but it looks significantly better than the cyber truck.

I hate it because you can't see 20 feet in front of you. My friends got an R1 and like it, but admit that the hood is so high and flat that they can't see if their own kids are in front of them.

I hate thar trend in newer cars for the hoods to keep getting higher and boxier. It sucks for driver visibility and is even worse for pedestrian safety.

Couldn't they fix that by getting rid of the frunk?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Probably, but the boxy hood/grille are 100% an aesthetic choice and wouldn't be required regardless of whether it had a frunk or had an ICE under the hood.

The headlights.

It looks like an enemy in a mario game.
