Hahaha that thing looks like a cross between the Landmaster 5000 from Damnation Alley and the Citroen Karin, the pyramid head one from 1979. https://autoweek.com/article/classic-cars/citroens-karin-concept-was-80s-pyramid-wheels

Ok https://www.tesla.com/xNVh4yUEc3B9/05_Desktop.jpg but still access to the bed from the side is important for properly securing things so good luck with that.

Oh look it's a big brother to the Citicar https://cdn.carbuzz.com/gallery-images/original/80000/0/80002.jpg
There is an old "computer shop" near me that uses one of these as a landmark/signpost-
Yeah! Wedge shaped car design is a thing. Delorean, Stratos, x1/9, Fiero, mr2, m1. This is just as much retro as it’s futuristic.
People comparing it to the Homer or the Aztec are showing their ignorance but that’s ok. Gotta start somewhere. I probably would have said the same thing when I was 16 and too cool.

I think the real story is somewhere in between.
The Sonic rendered footage in the movie is possibly the only rendered footage that existed to that point. So they didn’t have to go in and re-do the whole movie because the whole movie wasn’t done yet.
They probably had a big internal fight/argument on how Sonic should look - should he look close to how he does in the game or should he look more like a creature you would encounter outside a cartoon? I mean, the version in comics and game doesn’t even have discrete eyes - it’s one big white surface with two pupils on it. But you’re going to put him in the real world now. The marketing materials for the movie went out of their way to now show Sonic’s face because they couldn’t agree on it yet.
The executives who wanted the less-cartoony look won out and the people who wanted the closer-to-the-game version pushed to get a trailer out ASAP because they knew they wouldn’t win without fan reactions handy.
The internet and, more importantly, the potential target audience, hated it and so the second faction had what they needed to change up Sonic’s design.
This is all just my theory, I don’t know what really happened of course but I don’t think making themselves look like idiots and then backing out of it was a purposeful marketing strategy.
That “Meth. I’m on it.” campaign was making them (the ad execs) look like idiots on purpose because once you see what the campaign is really about you get it. And they’ve got your attention. They got the whole country’s attention with that ad campaign. We thought they were idiots, turns out they’re brilliant.
