You missed the point, it's not about numbers and letters, it's how they used it, they used a name structured just like their competition.Its hard to be original when you are just combining numbers and letters.
I think that the F-Pace name is a good one. Simple and stands out from the crowd.
I think that non-car people are going to be equally confused by the whole alpha-numeric naming scheme regardless of the exact structure. I see what you are saying, I just don't think it has as big an impact as you think. They'd be confused either way.You missed the point, it's not about numbers and letters, it's how they used it, they used a name structured just like their competition.
Not necessarily. Until displacements became detached from nomenclature in the name of marketing congruity model distinction was fairly easy. First initial was class/segment (designated how each company wished) and the second two denoted displacemnt. Letters afterwards would indicate something special, t for turbo s for supercharger, se for special edition etc.I think that non-car people are going to be equally confused by the whole alpha-numeric naming scheme regardless of the exact structure.
