    I presume it'll be at Goodwood on the weekend, will have a look.

    I don't mind the style of it, but the proportions look a bit off, as I think a lot of Bentleys do. It looks a little weedy on those wheels.

    The grille looks like a cheese grater designed by Paco Rabanne.


    It looks hideous.

    In particular, since there is no need for a grille in a BEV in the first place. But just trying to keep a balanced view, even without my suggestions above it looks far less hideous than those "Jaguars" recently unveiled.

    If these are the cars of the future, we're in for some very ugly times. Oh, the glory of the 50s and 60s...

    I saw the new Renault 4 the other day, it’s extremely cool. The R5 already looks great, and I also saw one of the new Fiat Pandas too. Some very cool cars.
    That Hyundai Santa Fe is very handsome too, apart from at the rear.

    But don't you feel they all look a bit the same, square jawed semi SUVs or something. I don't know, I think all electric cars still look too big, too much like big boxes. And all this SUV mania. Us with the small sports cars, roadsters, ..., we now look like tiny things on the road next to these, don't we? ;) I take it you're a car guy, @mtm, didn't you once said you owned a BMW Z3 Coupe, and your father had a cobra? Am I mistaken? I usually have this sort of memory, stuff sticks, you know. Now these are cool cars, each on their own right. Compare those to this new stuff coming out. I mean, I do like some concepts, like the Mazda Iconic SP and MG Cyberster GTS, or the Polestar 6. What do you think of those?
