It looks alright, but I prefer the Model S's nose cone.
The Model X front looks unfinished to me. I would have preferred this:

My photoshop skills are amateurish but the front looks less plain and more symmetric IMO.
I may have said this earlier, I'm confused with all of the threads flying around, but any time you can "clean up" a design and minimize the use of many different and conflicting materials/colors, you create a more timeless design. The Model X nose is a timeless design that can carry forward into the future. It's distinctive and uniquely Tesla. It does not mimic the vestigial grille look. It is unabashedly proud of being an EV and not requiring a massive air intake. In my opinion - and I've been a designer most of my life and most of my professional years - the Model X design exudes a certain self-confidence that it doesn't have to look like an ICE vehicle or mimic ICE convention.
I think it's refreshing and beautiful!
It looks like something's missing. They should've put a slightly embossed logo or something here. Excuse my quick and dirty photochop
View attachment 96130This one looks great.
I have noticed a trend here on TMC that all of the new stuff that's unlike the old stuff is a catastrophe of epic proportions, and all involved are incompetent and should be sacked.
I agree that the Model X front, especially in white, looks unfinished.
When the Model S first came out the design feature that I least liked was the nose cone. However, it did grow on me, especially when I realized that it had two important functions. First it provided access, particularly to the 12v battery. Second it was a portion of the car that was very likely to come in contact with other objects. So having a replaceable plastic nose cone was preferrable to replacing an aluminum front of the car.
So returning to the Model X. What does this "unfinished" nose provide in functionality or aesthetics that warranted eliminating a replaceable nose cone?

Looks very good to me. For some reason this nose in white seems to work better with the lower, sleeker profile of Model S.
Well maybe someone can just make vinyl to go up there?

Looks like a snake to me from this angle (as does the X)
Haha. The animal I see is shark. Something to do with the slope of the upper portion of the nose slanting backwards.
