Title: The EVs we don't get
Post by: Laconian on January 31, 2023, 12:04:13 PM
Creating a thread to talk about the EVs that aren't imported into the US.

China makes a lot of compelling small EVs that are selling like gangbusters especially in developing countries. Here's an example of what I'm talking about, the Haomao (Good Cat):

47kWh lithium ion phosphate battery (no fires! great battery life!), 300mi range, $15-20k. And, uh, it looks a bit like a Porsche!

That actually looks pretty nice.  Part Mini, part baby Porsche.

I have wanted a VW ID.3 since they announced it. If they sold it in the US I would 100% be driving it today. RWD, small hatchback, electric: Basically perfect.
