Interesting. Honda did the same thing with their late entry into the pickup market, the Ridgeline. The first generation (2006-2014) was a polarizing design. (But I liked it.) The second gen (2017-present) looks more mainstream and is a bit more functional but lacks the disruptive panache of gen 1. I like it less, but actually bought one. So who knows what will happen with Tesla. Maybe its weirdness will soften into something more sustainable given time.
