I guess I’m really lamenting the death of the shitbox econo car.
Usually the electric cars with a larger motor are also more efficient, since the motor does not have to run near its peak all the time.
It's so sad, because we could make really great shitbox econo cars now. China, Japan and India are doing it, meanwhile in the U.S. we're needing side-step assistance to climb into our tower-viewing position $80K+ ROADMASTER trucks and SUVs.
There are places in the US that, instead of banning giant trucks, are banning Kei trucks.
I hate this country.
