I disagree. I think it looks sharp and it has a lot of the Mustang elements built into it. I also think it's sharper than the Tesla SUV. I do like the Roadster, though. I'm also not buying it because of the name. If I wanted a sports car, which I'm playing with the thought of, I will look into a GT350, GT500 or maybe the new Corvette. Leaning towards the new vette.
While I don't believe or prescribe to the belief that electric will save the world, I do lie and think the technology is cool.

Whatever floats your boat .
I just don't understand why they didn't just use the actual Mustang instead of "Mustang elements." If I wanted an electric Mustang, I'd want an electric MUSTANG, not some midget Mustang-ish car.

And you may see it as I think every car manufacturer will eventually offer every model in electric. In one way it's their effort to electrify everything.
On a related note, my brother-in-law who works for the FBI stated that they will eventually convert their fleet to all electric. Supposedly a Biden administration directive.

Probably the same reason why Coca Cola went with "New Coke" even though it ended up a disaster and they had to save face by inventing "Coke Classic."
