"Agreed - current Mazda surfacing is incredibly well-resolved. On the CX-9 it manages to be quite dynamic, but it's not over-worked. They must have an excellent Alias team too!"
"I think you're right - at least one for Aero management. The solid buttress was around on all sorts of classics; Dino, Jaguar XJS etc Not so great for blind-spots!"
"Drew, some great insights! "The VW iD only stole the show because of what it represents, not what it looks like or does." I think that's probably true..but you can guarantee that VW have the resources and skill to create a game-changer with the production version of this car, likely the next-gen Golf. What it does is innovative, and what it looks like, at the moment, is not. It's good to see a move away from identifying powertrain and platform innovation with merely with a sliver of blue, or green though - more radical architecture and design is needed!"
