Why Tesla's Design Has Barely Changed

[concibar]

Loop looks wrong, the starting and stopping scene doubles (compare the model s...)

It's also about the cost. Cheaper to manufacture the same design rather than changing it every 5-7 years.

didnt i watch -the exact- almost the same video already?
is it a reupload?
edit: kinda, except the beginning is different

It's good that I can recognize them so I can keep my distance. *cough* phantom breaking *cough*

Dude your content deserves better lighting. Softer and both sides of your face need to be lit

maybe compare the same models and not a sedan model and SUV from BMW 😂

I am still hoping the Cybertruck will not be released. Even amateur 3D renders look 10, 000 times better than that POS.

Tesla doesn't have the money to change the designs comprehensively. Facelifts are all they can afford.

BMW is one of the more disruptive companies when it comes to design. A counterexample would be Audi following the same Design language forever. I guess it's because both brands are operating in the shadow of Mercedes Benz, and each of them try to compete with the dominating player in very different ways: BMW = disruptive, Audi = conservative.

The Cybertruck design kinda speaks against this theory as well.

The Teslas looked good when they were released, but today they look dated. I think they can't figure out how to run their factories efficiently and that's why they barely made any new models.

Idk, m8. There’s a little French sports car manufacturer called Alpine that was reintroduced to the world in 2017 with the A110. They’re just starting to expand their lineup beyond that one car, but they’re making various designs that look and feel distinctly Alpine. There’s another manufacturer that launched relatively recently (I wanna say also 2017): Polestar. They’ve released 6 new models so far, but every single one has a new design evolution, and though they use some of the same design cues, every car in the lineup looks distinct and different from the one that came before it. So if it was really Tesla being concerned with being iconic, they would probably try to make a few more designs to hammer home what a Tesla looks like on many body styles. But they don’t. They operate like Apple: facelift the car every few years, but don’t jump far forward ever because reasons. At least Apple does it to put more emphasis on refining their pre-existing features. Tesla doesn’t even have that excuse

You sure it's not because they're lazy?
