These Are The Car Design Elements You Hate The Most

Car design evolves to fit both the aesthetic of the age and road regulations. Things like safety and aerodynamics play a part in how a car looks. Other times, a car’s layout is what, hopefully, designers think will be most helpful and look the best for customers. Problem is, they don’t always stick the landing.

Last week, I asked you guys for the most abhorrent aspect of car design for you. Some of you really opened my eyes up to trends and styles that I hadn’t previously noticed. And I, too, got Mad On The Internet.
