Dang, just looked up the suicide doors. That's... interesting. The driver and passenger seatbelts look like they are attached to the rear doors, so when you pick up someone, and they get in the back, you have to unbuckle so they can open the door.

Are the major car companies even trying to make reasonable electric cars? They all look so weird and have weird design decisions that make me not want to buy them at all.

It's improving. The Golf EV and Fiat 500e are basically the same exteriors and interiors with EV drivetrains. The Mercedes 250B EV looks extremely normal. I believe Ford has some normal-looking EV options.

But BMW went all-in on a new platform and new materials, and that led them to the suicide doors. I don't think there's any excuse for the front end, though.
