Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Nice! But those three-pointed stars everywhere give me nausea. Can’t they just make something nice without splattering their logo everywhere? It makes it look so cheap (look at the front: 1 huge logo, 1 small above it and 2 in the headlights… I know German car design has left any dignity some years ago but this is pathetic).

Sorry for the futile rant :D

Gosh, even the sunroof is studded in their logo.

Also, aren't shooting breaks by definition 2-doors? This is just a wagon.

Shooting break just defines what the rear section looks like, the number of doors doesn't matter.

A shooting break historically has always been a longroof coupe not a wagon without headroom in the rear.

4 door coupés have been a thing for quite some time though.

They sure have, but the difference between shooting breaks and “shooting breaks” is that a real one has a somewhat horizontal roofline with a somewhat vertical rearend. That is not the same as a wagon with a sloping roofline like most modern “shooting breaks”
