'Head Turning Design' is right.
And those wheels??

Sounds like plenty of power.

Nice, but I can do without the graphics, flashy wheel and those eyebrows in the rear

The busy graphics detract from IMHO a very cool design. I wonder how you could get a twin turbo V6 drivetrain into it

I was hoping for solid state battery tech but left a comment for the similarity of the 80’s Renault 5 hatchback

Looks cool (retro) but the weight would make it a pig.

I’m not a buyer for the Kia either but that’s a pretty decent looking car.

I think so also. I have made the suggestion to management that the EV6 should be offered with an internal combustion engine, maybe a turbo 4 cylinder, so that customers would have a choice in power plants because I think it is a nice looking vehicle. When sitting in one, I feel like I am in a cocoon.

The exterior style of that Kia is not bad . A sort of modern shooting brake .

That Ragnalt looks like a toy. I wouldn't own it no matter what it was powered by.
