"I quite like some of the BMWs."

GRILLs, Grills everywhere!

Yaawwwwhhhrrrrr! Grrrrrrrrr!

Grills == BBQ == Manly!

Sorry, I'm just poking fun. There are so many auto style people that go ga-ga over something that is fundamentally inefficient aerodynamically.

I'd like to note that Fiat and Citroen, based on my rather sparse knowledge, are basically not even bothering with EVs at the moment.

Fiat have an electric 500, and Citroen have been reselling Mitsubishi EVs for a looong time, but yeah, not a whole lot going on. I figured GP was discussing design aesthetic in general though.

I always thought BMWs grills looked more snout-like than BBQ-ish...
