Harley Lover Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 It's a... car! EV based, no less. Not a crossover. Not an SUV! Someone in Genesis design put in some time on this, very handsome: More pics and Genesis pr here: https://www.genesisnewsusa.com/en-us/releases/216 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I like most of it, but that grille doesn't work at all, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems they are like Lexus, they chose that shape and are determined to keep issuing iterations of it until they get it right (if that ever happens).

T-dubz Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I actually really like this. The profile kinda reminds me of a muscle car from the 70’s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks ok on the GV80, but everything else it looks too large for what it's on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 90s BMW 850 and Z3 are some of nicest BMWs in my opinion along with the old classic 70s 2002 (02 Series). I do like this Genesis concept even with that grille. It looks nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 It’s interesting and I think I like it, but like stated above, not a big fan of the dip in the lower side of the grill. My first thought on the rear was the Olds Aurora. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurgeh Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 What's with the long hood on a BEV? I think it is a handsome car, but that hood makes it looks like a 1970s-era Jaguar with a V-12 under the hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Style and classic automotive proportions......so it doesn't look like a jellybean/shoe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that so far, automakers use this area for storage space, you now would have a huge "frunk" and maybe room for a full sized spare tire with a lot of space for shopping bags as well.
