I love what we got to see today. Imho von Holzhausen is doing a fantastic job there.
Getting rid of the skeumorph grille is just right. It signals EV from the get go.
After some minute I knew what this snout remembered me of: The Renault Floride
And guess what retrofit “grilles” are saught after period aftermarket items:
Feel free to built one for the model3. I am sure it won’t sell, as people will be proud to signal that this one is electric.

Concerning the rear glass. In my eyes the cars presented today were little more than styling bucks. A lot of detail was left out. Did the rear hatch open once in the presentation? Didnt see it.
But whats even more daring than the grille less design is the profit less business model. Can they really pull this off? The major bet is the Giga factory. I’d want to see that one operating on scale before putting down a deposit…
