About the scale, it's maybe the lack of reference that makes them look like models.
That's part of it, but I think it's a few other more key things. There is a lack of subtle detail in the materials and in the lights that make it feel small scale and a bit unnatural. i.e no break up in the highlights you get from undulations in car laquers, gradient highlights are a bit even for real sized lightboxes, too much fill under wheel wells. Also you don't see any undercarriage components and shocks/struts etc, and the interior is a bit simplified too.
These are not major crits of the work, but they are factors that make it look like a good and realistic render of a model, and not a full size auto.
Just my POV
