Used to work for a car manufacturer. They do it to obfuscate the design, which others have already stated. But, what I haven’t seen anybody mention is that they do it to keep competitors from seeing their designs. The thing is, car companies are always trying to get an edge up on one another in sales. If another company gets to see what design they are using with the body, they can copy it. Take a look on the road now and you’ll notice how many car bodies have a similar design because that’s what they know sells.
The longer they can keep their body design a secret, the better their sales I’m whatever niche they are trying to fil, assuming someone else doesn’t come out with something similar.
