The decline of Western design and the urgency to imagine
The decline of Western design and the urgency to imagine

It is not Ferrari (only), it is the design of the USA and Europe that does not quite understand that the electric car is not a gasoline car with a different engine.

"Electrification and autonomy will completely transform the shape a car takes. Electric vehicles have different weight distributions and cabin space limitations than gasoline cars. Without engines under the hood, why not enter through the front, as the success of the Microlino suggests? Tighter turning angles are also made possible, allowing cars to rotate on themselves thanks to simultaneous steering of all four wheels, as in the latest models of the Chinese brand BYD. Some designers have already abandoned traditional design. Amazon's Zoox robotaxi has no hood or trunk. In China, cars already look like mutants escaped from a laboratory."
