This will most likely sell a lot more units than the CT abomination from $TSLA. “Kia’s first electric van looks even better in person” This Kia van looks orders of magnitude (ha!) more useful than the ugly CT. $TSLAQ And it comes in many different variants (cargo): electrek.co/2025/03/14/k... - ThreadSky

But not this color, please.

I’m pretty sure they have will a range of colors…my point was more about general functionality (cargo and passenger versions):

I know ^^
But to be fair, comparing to a tesla, everything is great :o

OMG, it actually looks like what it is marketed as, a van.

Looks Rivianesque, not a bad thing.

God that's a nice-looking vehicle.

damenewbie.bsky.social•14 days ago

See now that's actually cute. Unlike the 8 bit Deplorean.

I’m all for dumping on Tesla, but the front of that van is not doing it for me.

As much as I loved minivan design in the 80s? Especially the Japanese manufacturers, like Toyota, and Mitsubishi. The cab over vans of that Era, with some of my favorite designs.

This? This calls right back to those beautiful boxy minivans, and I love it.

Yes, it looks like a vehicle not a macho authoritarian statement.

Um thats ugly too. 😑

The vast majority of today's cars are ugly af with too many being white, black, silver, or glossy primer grey. The last one baffles me to no end because what cause a a glossy primer color to be an actual vehicle color.
