That's almost as ugly as my 1981 Dodge Omni

Not sure anything's as ugly as that thing.  My daughter who is now the proud new officially licensed driver of a "real" Mustang, won't even acknowledge that those things exist.

Finally found one that was close to the color combo I had.  Mine was a Dodge Omni and this is a Plymouth Horizon, but they were the same car.  Really pretty, isn't it?

I don't think the Mustang EV is hideous enough to be in an all-time bad category. Not going to win any beauty pageants, of course, but it's just kinda mediocre. 

For me, the hate comes from the fact that Ford slapped the name Mustang on a 4-door crossover.

For me it's both.  It's terrible that they badged that thing as a Mustang, but even without that label, I find pretty much all of the 4-door crossover/small SUV looking things, to be quite hideous looking as well.

Some folks may dislike that they get called "SUVs" and this don't like anything about them.  Styling is not something of importance to me, at least, it's way down the list.

Those 1970s "boxes" at least were space efficient.  

I read a few more reviews about the BMW X1 and as things stand now, I'm pretty sure two features make it a no go for me, the poor start stop and that DCT at low speeds.

Hey, I hear you on that. 

But c'mon... It's not like the Mustang EV is one of these...

Now, the Aztek was so ugly I wouldn't buy it, even though it had some features of note.

Aztek definitely one of the most awful car designs, ever.
