They look kind of dopey, but they look like they’d really do a good job of prioritizing safety for pedestrians, pets, and especially kids with the really low hood height. The minimum distance to see the road on that thing has got to be like three inches.
🤔 I wonder if it could have been designed without that part altogether. I’ve driven one of those flat-fronted Isuzu box trucks before, and it’s crazy how much more you can see in front of the vehicle.

Valid point.

The flat front is a tradeoff that tends to make maintenance more difficult
