​Agreed.

I used to own what is widely regarded as the ugliest car ever, a 1970's
Datsun F-10 station wagon.​  (Look it up.)  I wasn't particularly fond of
the looks, but that car was absolutely un-killable.  It was exactly what I
needed while focusing on college.  I have little doubt it is still ugly-ing
up some owner's driveway while it continues to refuse to die.

Note also this "survey" singled out the Spark EV, making no mention of the
Spark ICE.  I can only conclude that is one *very* ugly "EV" badge on the
car, since that is presumably the only difference between the two and sent
the EV straight to the top of the list.  The BMW i3 is on the list too.
C'mon, it's an unexpected departure from BMW's usual fare, but ugly?  Give
me a break.

Truly stupid.  What this list shows is that some people are unwilling to
accept a radical departure from the status quo.  These are the people who
will never ever drive an EV.  Who cares?  They are few and getting fewer,
so they don't matter.
