I‘m just waiting on the release of the german X-Bus. A modular 600kg vehicle that counts as a quad and can be used as a bus/transporter/pickup/camper and recharges 30-50km of range a day through solar energy on the roof for under 20k€ is exactly what I want from an EV. I don’t need a 50k price tag with shiny smart features.

I've just been looking at those. I can't help but think of the old adage, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is

it basically falls under the vehicle classification of tricycles and golf carts, so the safety standards are, shall we say, more lenient

I would prefer better crashworthiness though
