I mean a lot of people here, including some on this sub, constantly shit on actually aerodynamic designs like the EQS or the Model 3, calling them egg shaped and stuff. Building giant bricks seems to in line with American taste.
Egg shaped is a first for me. The model 3 and Y have a distinct fish and frog like appearance, but the model S proves that doesn’t have to be the case.
Still, I’d rather have a weird fish-frog hybrid than an SUV on the roads.
The front ends have that fish/frog appearance, but the egg shaped is more like the whole thing (for the X and Y at least). Look at them from a 45 angle. Not a lot of sharp distinctive lines cause it’s trying to be as aerodynamic as an SUV can be.
It’s a shame the most popular vehicles in the US (trucks, SUVs) are the least aerodynamic and deadliest to pedestrians and other road users.

Tesla have either squashed frog or frog with tumor shapes.
I’d say the EQS manages to be both aerodynamic and attractive. The Taycan and Air have also pulled it off. Tesla has struggled to balance those two.
