Why are high efficient fuel vehicles ugly?

2

I don’t understand the design of high efficient fuel vehicles.

I think the concept is great (saving money on gas) but why do they (automakers) design them ugly? I mean, the whole futuristic look is totally a turn-off. It just looks cheap, ugly, and unrealistic to drive or even boast about. I know saving money on fuel is imperative to some but style is important, too.

Is this just the look towards the future or what? I know cars develop over time with shape, etc. but it seems a bit weird to me.

Don’t they realize their cars would sell more if it were styled in a better way?

Thoughts?

the idea is they produce less wind drag, but hell do they look ugly for it! i am willing to sacrifice extra fuel for some style. where i live in Australia its still very rare to see any hybrids, most people still get around in there Ford Falcons (4.0lt straight 6) or Holden Commodores (3.6lt v6)
