The DeLorean Alpha5 has gotten mixed reactions, but I actually like the new design direction. Sure, they could have just electrified the DMC-12, but would that have been too predictable?

1. It’s sleek, modern, and distinct instead of just an updated version of an 80s icon.
2. If this had been released under a different brand, would it be more appreciated?
3. The DeLorean name carries massive nostalgia, which means some people will never be happy unless it looks exactly like the original.

What do you think, did they make the right call, or should they have leaned harder into the DMC-12 heritage?
