Yes they all look the same. After 10 years, my wife still confuses her car with others. More importantly, a great enthusiasm killer is the price/reliability.
It seems that the only "new" features are some cheaply made electronic gizmos. Sometimes I think they are just marking time until electric cars are the norm.
BTW: the lack of interest (for me) extends to today's music.
It’s government-driven. That entity long ago captured. Whittling down possibilities so shareholders don’t take a tremendous bath once the planet is down to 3-4 manufacturers. Several drivetrain configs, thus a shell that accommodates any.

(“Music” hasn’t been musical since your first crunchy bowl of beetles in 1964. To claim otherwise is to tout the superiority of McDonalds to all other food choices)
