The design of the Hyundai Staria is unquestionably modern and futuristic, unlike anything we’ve seen in the automotive world today. Sometimes, however, bold and innovative designs age poorly, and can look dated or even silly after only a few years. It’s especially true for vehicles that rely heavily on current design trends or attempt to predict future aesthetics. Certainly the Staria's spaceship like appearance and distinctiveness such as its full width LED light bar and its big windows are striking now, but there is a debate about how they will be perceived in five or ten years. There are those who say that really forward thinking design becomes timeless, and those who argue that more conservative styling tends to age better. But there's also the question of how the Staria's design will play with itself as other automakers also begin to move towards more futuristic designs.
