that designer is so going to lose his reputation on this, how can this even made it to the public??? looks horrible!
The steering wheel isn't square! Its rounded! We need roundier squares!! lol
I'd like to see some proof of this. From what I am seeing, Apple is pulling in a lot from the European car design community. Most distinctive is they are doing their best to ignore any Big 3 talent from Detroit.
Apple creates slick and thin designs. Great looking computers and devices. This car doesn't fit Apple's visual aesthetic.
Can you imagine a Microsoft car? A car that always crashes...
Seems you haven't noticed that this abomination has nothing at all to do with Apple.

Maybe send them to taste school first.

Looking like that, you couldn't even blame it.

Samsung couldn't design a car _that_ ugly. It needs a certain kind of talent to make something _that_ ugly. I mean that's dedication to ugly. It's not the kind of ugly that you create by having no talent, you need to be really good to create that ugly.

That was the designers playing Kraftwerk's "Autobahn".
After looking at the outside, I expected the inside to be at least thought through. But no. Those seats look as uncomfortable and unsafe as possible. The divider prevents you from using it as anything but a 4 passenger car. Got a 3rd child? Leave her at home. Have something big to carry? SOL.
That was the first thing I saw and thought, too. I hope they didn't pay for those renders.
We know nothing about the Apple Car except that it's going to be a high-end, expensive luxury electric car, just like the Teslas. By then, rich people will have plenty of expensive luxury electric cars to choose from. Except to them, electric will have no benefit since they can afford any amount of petrol anyway.
The revolution will happen once we start seeing cheap, basic electric cars for the masses, and when buying a petrol car won't be worth it anymore, just like buying a film camera isn't really worth it anymore. It will mean that going somewhere will not cost anything and maintenance will be cheaper. It's not like soon everyone will have a Tesla or an Apple Car. That worked with smartphones but most people won't just be able to afford expensive luxury cars all of a sudden. The environment will only start to benefit once the majority of cars are electric, and the majority of those cars will be cheap, low end, just like they are now.

Designed? That's a bit generous
Anyway, not sure they're old enough to be employed in the first place.
