Aluminum bodies?
About time!
I’ve been advocating for that for decades.
My 1950 Jag had an aluminum body, my Land-Rover 88” has an aluminum body, Range-Rovers have aluminum bodies, many Ferrari’s have aluminum bodies.
It’s not like it’s a black-art to make aluminum bodies.
Much more durable than cheap plastic, mere sunlight does not rot it.
Recycles very well too.
I expect panels will be bonded on in a manner that makes them easy to replace.
Given a choice between Aluminum and Plastic, I will take Aluminum EVERY time.
