Sometimes, when you take a look at automotive design, what you see can be just a little bit baffling as you wonder why manufacturers design cars the way that they do. It’s kind of odd how a trend will take place and before you know it, a design concept is being shared between several automakers as the general overall shape of cars seems to trend in about the same direction no matter what brand you’re looking at. For example, if you take a look at just about any car from the 80s, it will be pretty boxy and angular. With these concepts, those who have an idea of how cars have evolved should be able to easily discern what decade the vehicle came from.
With such trends coming and going, it really could lead you wonder why exactly this is. Why do most automakers tend to continue on in a similar direction as one another? Why do certain shapes stick around longer than others? Finally, why do automakers never revive ceratin styles in the way that they originally were? It seems like the answer these question might be a little bit simpler than you had imagined as it remains true, even in the market today.
If you follow down the video below, you’ll learn a little bit about why exactly it is that cars have seemed to go from a sort of boxy appearance to one where more curves are thrown in the mix. It seems like there are a wide variety of reasons why things like this happen, however, the fun part of it all is that you can never really be sure what exactly it is it’s going to happen next.
