Im all for avant-garde design. please, make crazy stuff. But that doesn’t mean that anything crazy is also good. I didn’t love the concept but the production candidate CT just looks “off,” the proportions are weird. Something about the size of the wheel wells and the snub nose compared to the body makes it look very awkward. And simple can be really striking, but the CT just looks like a clumsy triangle and not badass to me.
But from a styling standpoint I will give it a fair shake when I see one in person.
This is purely anecdotal, but there are a lot of forum posts about serious failures and legitimate problems happening to Teslas, not just quality. But, there are also a shitton of Teslas out there, and lots of new cars seem to be full of gremlins, so it’s really hard to say - according to this survey they stack up pretty well.
