The "wrong" element I tried to point out is not design diversity meeting various market niche's needs, but this forced, subtle, suspicious homogeneity that is probably meant to serve particular politics, since we live in times of globohomo-fascism (which includes forcefully moving the car market away from internal combustion engines to EV's). The problem is intentionally killing automotive passion in the name of a questionable, left-leaning ideology such as environmentalism, which serves as a pretext for imposing globalist green socialism.

Furthermore, it's just this weird phenomenon that is so pervasive yet so freaking difficult to pinpoint as to its root cause, like smartphones back in 2014 having actual personality depending on the brand as well as more useful features like front-facing speakers and removable batteries, versus the smartphone industry losing individual personality after the iPhone X and homogeneizing their products into clearly mass-surveillance hardware, as opposed to humane and ethical communications technology. And then a lot of companies redesigning their own logos in a hyperminimalistic, bland way. It's almost nightmarish when you think about it. A sign of the times.

Picrel is Mexico's Claudia Sheinbaum's version of the VW Type 1 (a.k.a. the Beetle) and the Trabant, from the "Olinia" brand, but in meme form, not as it was officially anounced. It has that home-appliance look to it, but slanted headlights, so it's not really like modern EV's are designed to look friendlier or nicer than internal combustion cars.

The problem is when people are forced to a few or a single kind of choice in the market, as opposed to a more organic diversity of purchase choices, which a free market economy ought to have.
