Oh hey, a car that's basically what I wanted. A reasonably sized and priced electric hatchback.
Not in the market for a new car though
Canada will get Renault EVs as soon as next year...Alpine brand.
That car is going to cost twice or even thrice as much. Alpine is a premium performance brand.
US is not one of their listed market options/ambitions.
No one is buying EVs, tariffs and the economy is shit until 2030 or longer.
tariffs are confusing. Courts keep striking them down. Used EVs are doing very well in current gas crisis. Cheap subcompact hatchbacks should appeal for same general reason.
