I'm curious about this as well. I know it's a bit taboo to say here but I don't think the Tesla S looks very attractive either. Something about the shape and proportions that makes it look bulbous and just a bit amateurish. I'm also European and used to European design language.

I think my first reaction of seeing a Tesla Model S was "that's a nice looking Mondeo". I actually think they are quite handsome in an understated kind of way.

However, my first reaction when seeing a (white) Model X was "that's incredibly ugly".

NB I am in the UK

Does anyone find the X pretty? It's a godawful abomination of a vehicle.

The thing that gets me about the X is this. While I know cross-overs are mostly a design statement rather than being about actually living the wild sporting life, the fact that you have something that's nominally an SUV that can't have a roof rack because of the gull wing doors strikes me as pretty silly. (Of course, EVs aren't great for lugging canoes to remote locations anyway.)
