Thunder Power electric SUV and its mesmerizing grille

The oddly-named company designed an oddly-shaped grille for its first SUV.

I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.

The Thunder Power SUV was revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2017.

Despite its name, the vehicle is actually powered by electricity.

The company says the grille is an icon in the making, but we'll just call it hypnotizing.

The company has been mum on power output or range of the SUV.

Looks like Thunder Power took a styling cue from Nissan with the boomerang taillights.

Inside, the dash is all screen, all the time.

No b-pillar makes rear seat entry and exit a breeze.

This two-tone steering wheel is everything.

Sumptuous white leather rounds out the nicely appointed cabin.
