Well, I didn't think Honda was come out with anything worse looking than the Element, I was wrong. I hope the concept gets some changes.

Also, I know the Ridgeline copied alot of the features and ideas of the Avalanche, and it looks like Toyota is going to do the same.

I know it's just a concept, but it's really ugly.

The ABat is actually kinda cool. If only Dodge would produce the Rampage, which the ABat seems like it copied from.

Why does this look like the general design of the Camaro? Hip flares, slight B pillar, general shape...

"The four-seat A-Bat concept is a compact hybrid-powered pickup with a shape inspired by both the Toyota Prius hybrid car and a military truck, according to Toyota."

Hummer anyone?

I'm afraid I don't see it...aside from both of them being coupes...I see very little similarities.

Kinda creepy... I feel like it's staring at me...

*Seriously, look at the headlight and tell me it's not looking back... I dare you...

Aha, I see Honda is following Ford's "Chrome everything that is facing forward" design strategy.
