If one had 3D models of, oh say, the EV-1, the Volkhart-Sagitta, and the VW XL-1 that all had the same polygon counts, with equivalent vertices along the hard edges (wheel wells and rocker panels to start); then it would be possible to morph among the three to define an envelope of possible design solutions. Then turn evolutionary algorithms loose on the data set and see what falls out.
