Is this a glamour shot?

I love this pic, even have it for my wallpaper.
Is it retouched?
I don't see the slots on the front wheel covers for suspension movement.

I never saw that before, good eye. It would be nice if they were able to clean up those gaps. I like the one on the golf course also. Its the same angle, just doesn't look touched up.

The lighting on the ground also looks like it was added after the fact. It just does not seem to come from the car.

But I like the photo. The car is so unique and very beautiful.

It is a rendering -- I thought that was discussed here before.

I posted this question a month ago, and never got any bites.
I've read every post on this forum, and never saw it discussed.
It was just an observation on my part. I wondered what everyone else thought.
This was one of the first pictures that I saw of the Aptera, I scratched my head for awhile trying to figure out how the suspension worked.
Thanks for giving an old post a little love fritzponds;)

I must have seen it discussed on another forum, then :)

That image looks like a touch up of a photo. All the elements are there but the suspension openings appear to be covered.
Even the lighting looks tweaked.

It may be a rubbery substance that would give.

I have exactly the same pic as my background.
