A blatant insult to Aston Martin.

As I'm not much of a car enthusiast so I'm stating my preferences rather any objective measure of design .

- The square Volvos from the '80s and '90s

- The pre-2017 Jaguar F-Type models (they really butchered the kitty over the years)

- The Jaguar E-type

- Cadillac Ciel

- Cadillac Cien

- The Batmobile from B:TAS

- Lamboughnini Veneno 0

- Lambourghini Terzo Millenio

- Ferrari F40/GTS Turbo

- McLaren F1

- Jaguar XJ220

I’m a big fan of Mazda (specifically the Mazda 6). I feel like it looks much more expensive than they actually go for.

In my opinion Audi creates the most visually appealing vehicles inside and out. There are very few brands that can compete with them on looks, very few. Mechanical/dependable/value is another story.

Porsche, 2014+ BMW. 2020+ Audi.

What can I say? I have a liking for the German brands.

Volvo are upping their game and honestly Chinese brands have a really great design language but the brand power of non-Volvo Chinese brands is weak.

Lucid too, but they only have one model

> BMW

The new grill won me over , especially on the 3/4 series and the M versions

> Porsche

They have the great advantage of not having to pay for designers ever since the Beetle /s

> Audi

The best in terms of individual model design and also overall

Kinda sad that Mercedes-Benz lost their way, they are not even putting the star on the hood anymore , except for the S-Class and the Maybach

In terms of supercars I'd say Ferrari but I really mean Pininfarina, they do Lambos and Zondas as well IRC

Volvo is still a Swedish brand even if it is owned by a Chinese company (Geeky). The owners were wise to keep the headquarters and design department in Sweden (most of Volvo’s worldwide employees are in Sweden). Wiki still lists it as a Swedish automotive company.

Porsche and BMW are the ones that everyone copies. Look at how many cars now have the once distinctive BMW tail lights, hood creases etc. and how many cars now have the profile of the Panamera, which was regarded as hideous when it first came out, or the Macan. Tesla is the only comparable brand now, in the sense of being original.

Rivian

Affordable: Mazda, Hyundai, and Kia

Luxury: Porsche and Mercedes

I really like most Lexus models. The IS has had great designs for decades

The magnificent three: Mercedes, BMW and Audi.

Volvo, maybe?
