Oh good, yet more high fronted vehicles.

I applaud Kia for making electric cars, but I wonder how much visibility the driver will have immediately in front of them?

It looks like a fucking killing machine.

EV6 seems to have good viability at least

My first thought exactly. The hood is completely absurd for a ground up EV design on a dedicated platform and immediately stands out as a stupid design. This is one area Tesla really excels, with even the CT.

FWIW, designers would likely forgo the high front but there are pedestrian impact standards that require a high front to pass. At low speeds, perhaps there’s a front camera to assist in parallel parking?

Looks like a StormTrooper from StarWars

Looks like a large and elongated Soul.
