Lincoln Navigator Gull Wings?

[ABCCBA]

How big will your garage need to be for those doors to open??

@loganintx _ I'm thinking it might fit in this one.

The one glaring thing missing in this picture is the accompanying refueling vehicle required to keep this 'boat' moving.

There are some retired blimp hangers in my area that could probably handle one of these. It might be tight though.

Yep, Lincoln tried to copy but missed a critical point. Since the doors are gull-wing and not double-hinged, you'll have to have an empty parking space on both sides to open the door. Looks to me like you need a good 2-3 feet of clearance on either side to open the door. And naturally, the minute you make the door double-hinged (which they'll most likely realize they need to do once they get their heads out of their a**es), the problem becomes much more complex.

Probably an epic fail in an attempt to copy Tesla...

...but hey...sincerest form of flattery, right?

To me it's hilarious because it's a single door across both driver and passenger (front and back).

Can we talk about the hilarious staircase that leads up into the car? It's like what you see on RVs but bigger.

In keeping with the nautical theme, we shall henceforth refer to those as the "Grand Staircase of the Titanic."

So the question remains is what happens when two of these monsters are parked next to each other? Talk about door dings.

....And can you imagine the size of the garage you'd need to park this thing in?

 

[igotzzoom]

This a concept, not the production model. I guarantee you the gullwing doors won't make it to production.

That's not a garage. That's a hangar.

I'm amused that this gas guzzling behemoth is so big they put in steps to get into it.

I think it's been nearly a decade since I understood the aesthetics Lincoln has been going for. Honestly, it's as though they've been hiring a Chinese design firm. The front and rear styling gets progressively more pronounced, and absurd.

I think this vehicle qualifies as a living unit on HGTV's Tiny Houses.

I'm confused by the apparently differently positioned side mirrors in the picture in post 3. Is it an optical illusion?

But...but...they say the final car will be similar to the concept!

haha...

In the U.S. there are these things called gas stations (over 100,000 of them) where you can go and refuel the vehicle, so you would not need a refueling vehicle.

You can buy this vehicle and buy enough carbon credits for the average person for 25 years and still save money.

Similar is not the same as same.

Gas stations? What are those? In the Tesla world those don't exist. Oh, wait. I think I saw something like this in a couple of Bjorn videos. I think he bought some hamburgers there once or twice.

 

[Plan B]

All those steps.

People that drive monsters like that can’t park between the lines anyway. So the will just park on the line and take up two spots.
