If it did have pedals, that would be quite an engineering feat, but then commentators like this wouldn't know engineering if it bit them in the ass.

An ogive graph is a smooth S-shaped curve that is used in statistics. The graph is obtained by plotting the values of cumulative frequency against the upper boundary points of the class intervals.

Ogive
An ogive is the roundly tapered end of a two-dimensional or three-dimensional object. Ogive curves and surfaces are used in engineering, architecture and woodworking.

This dovetails nicely with the boat tail mod that could improve the range of a Tesla Model 3 to 380 miles both Phil and I are talking about.
