The Homer Simpson car, while it has its faults, is unironically better than everything in the SUV market.

1. Sure it’s got the pop up logo triangle, but the front is still overall better.
2. Great viability, check out that dome. The design choices naturally focus the server outside the car rather than on instruments.
3. Back seats also have a big dome to look out and realise there is a world outside the car, it’s not just an iPad screen to fast-travel. Again, the focus is on what’s outside the vehicle, not in it.
4. On screens, there in not a single screen in that car.
5. Low-loading height, height clearance, deep truck. Probably more on par with a van than an SUV.
6. Low laying headlamps with standard incandescent bulbs, nothing that can temporarily blind people.

Sure it has rear-view viability issues, and the horn (and multitude of horn buttons) is problematic. But the Homer Simpson car is a good people and stuff mover. Could probably do without the shag carpeting though.
