Why does a company that makes such great cars make them so ugly? |

1. The design language is being tailored to "emerging" markets (China), which is very different from the rest of the world. We (the west) aren't used to that. 2. Design teams can be very arrogant. It's their art so we as consumers are expected to love it. That doesn't always jive with the business aspect of meeting consumer demands. BMW has a long history of telling the consumer what they should like rather than asking them. |

It's a matter of knowing your audience. I wouldn't consider this forum a good barometer of the masses when it comes to automobile tastes. The average buyer doesn't have any deep connection to heritage or history. Like them or not BMW's EV's are resonating with buyers.

In regards to the XM, at least it's ICE!

I loved the concept XM for its aggressive brutal look but as more production photos leak the more I am disappointed. I wanted a crossover performance suv that sticks out but so far its not it. Also the interior and steering wheel are disappointing and look like my X6M Competition.
They shouldve made a sporty steering wheel https://twitter.com/cars_pixels/stat...n0VOWdPdwE8DVA |
