I'd say this is a realistic concern, as car styling is intensely memeish, which is why about 98% of them look absolutely stupid now (and with Craptruck dna mixed in, plenty room to get even worse).
In short: Agreed, I believe you Will see Shittruck design elements percolate into other vehicles.
Sure, #notAllMarques. There's a tiny sliver of the car market whose industrial design is restrained enough to not work like an acid eyewash—but most go wherever the wind blows.
The proof is 1) size. 2) most cars look like a stormtrooper helmet right now &previous trends weren't any more intelligent
I don't think it's stainless, but I wasn't referring to metal specifically.
Car styling is, as I said, intensely memetic, like all fashion. Of course, in theory, features are supposed to trickle down from market leaders,but these days all mindshare is supposedly valid, so cars may imitate the idiot
I don’t know anything at all about Chinese cars, but that absolutely looks like a way better design. And also NOT stainless steel.
I have to bury my head in my hands every time I think of what that ugly-ass thing is made out of.
Both Deloreans and Cybertrucks are made out of stainless steel. That’s literally the single most defining feature of both vehicles. It’s what makes their sharp corners so dangerous. Also, the entire rest of the automotive industry thinks the CT design is stupid.

Thank god that it takes the better part of a decade to design and release a car.
Keeps these auto execs from going full tech brain worms and just chasing shit like this.
