I have a hard time believing mainstream buyers would find this vehicle attractive.  

As mentioned above, the body shape of the Everest doesn’t lend itself from being different than the current Lincoln offerings.  If you want something similar to the G Wagon it needs to be Bronco based. I’m personally indifferent about the G Wagon but my kids think they are awesome. A Lincoln version of the G would be a lot more attainable to the average person and  I think it could sell well if done appropriately.    The “Dominus” image is a strong start IMO. I don’t love that name but perhaps they could draw from some old Lincoln models/concepts.  Some examples:   Lincoln Maharaja (1953) Lincoln XL-500 (1953) Lincoln Machete (1988) Lincoln Navicross (2003) Lincoln Mark X (2004) Lincoln Model L100 (2022) L Series Blackwood Marauder (stolen from Mercury)  

It's reverse marketing; yeah, that's it! Style it to look like the north end of a baboon running south, then sell attractive aftermarket parts and accessories to clean it up; just the opposite of what Jeep does.

I honestly think that AI designs better looking cars than actual automotive designers these days.

Not sure if a 2-inch taller roofline or a little extra ground clearance will discourage many loyal repeat customers.  Many may see it as a plus.  You raise a valid question though because the lower wagon-like height was kind of unique in that class and price IIRC.  Regardless, the Outback still retains some of the uniqueness that make it a Subaru to core customers; like Boxer 4-cylinder engine, symmetrical all-wheel-drive with some off-road capability, naturally aspirated 2.5L engine, fairly safe, etc.  Specs and price seem decent to me except for use of a CVT transmission, so overall may sell well in spite of different appearance.

Kinda looks like it is trying to ape the Wagon Queen Family Truckster....

I would like a fixed-top Bronco also.  My only complaint about ours is the wind noise from the removable top, that we'll likely only take off a couple times a year.  I could see us trading the Mach E in on a Lincoln or fixed-top version in a few years.  My wife wants a 4 door as she loves the seating position of the Bronco much better than the Mach E.  I don't see our 2 door going anywhere for a long time, so the Mach E would be the unlucky one out.  Make it a BEV and the decision to trade is much much easier.

Agreed, that’s why I mentioned BEV in my post above. That’s also why we don’t need Everest here (again, unless it were a BEV).   I would like a fixed top Bronco though. 

They are trying to gain mainstream market share with this redesign. I think it’s more likely to alienate their core customers as it is no longer a wagon. It’s essentially a highlander with more ground clearance. 

This is another AI creation...the slab sides look awesome to me.
