Ah, yes. You don't care for the design (neither do I BTW) and ergo, it
must be "US inspired". You, sir, are truly a piece of work.

I think it looks ugly from most perspectives. And no 4 wheel drive and
only 250 hp max? Good luck trying to compete with 5 series and A6.

Though AutoExpress writes:

"Thanks to the adaptability of the chassis, the 9-5 will be available in both
front-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive form"

The car has some rough edges, but who knows what the final car will look like.
But it's interesting that the car shown appears to exist in full scale, the
AutoExpress car has even a front reg plate. Looks like it could easily be modified
to a hatchback, one can always hope...
