Exactly an EV like this might actually be extremely practical for offroading as electric engines are so much simpler mechanically and you don't need complex transmissions like you need with gas engines. You can beat the shit out of it more and you have unlimited torque.

Or go smaller and have trailered EV polaris type vehicles that you can just plug in when you park them in your driveway/garage.

Yeah it is so stupid, but I mean so is the fact that there aren't car companies selling toyota yaris like EV vehicles for stupid cheap everywhere that aren't anything special but are even cheaper to run longterm than a yaris or honda fit. The usefulness of that type of vehicle is so incredibly obvious, but in the US at least battery refurbished and replacement of used EV batteries on say a 10 year old nissan leaf quickly outpaces the value of the vehicle. It doesn't make any logical sense to me and I hope that there starts to be a much bigger industry and the price drops quickly from companies taking perfectly good older nissan leaf type vehicles and putting a new battery in them.

Of course, taking a step back electric cars aren't the real answer, busses are (at least for most of the US).
