I like the "good birds" term, kudos to my tong-bao //@Anonymous: I hate both. Neither are good birds.

it looks ugly.

240-mile range is chicken nowadays...

So damn ugly.

Be frugal.

It's a new manufacturer. I wish them luck. I do appreciate the idea of a simple small EV pick up, but sadly 2 seaters don't sell well. Btw, Bezos is a backer,but not involved in the same way as Musk.

Too ugly. The design is so 90-ish.

Elon talked the model 3 was under $30000 before. Too good to be true!

That is good when it submerges. //@Anonymous: The $20k version has hand crank windows.
To upgrade to electric motor windows you need the next trim, $35k.

This looks like a GTA 1 car. The renderings are not even good, must be a scam.

So sorry for your mental illness. I hope you get well soon. //@Anonymous: all in as long as it is not elon musk!

under $20,000?
How much is it exactly for the lowest price configuration?
Don't want to register to see it.

For the sake of money, choose the 20K one //@Anonymous: The $20k version has hand crank windows.

By anonymous on 04/26/2025, 08:34 AM EDT
A big debate is on the way.

By anonymous on 04/26/2025, 08:30 AM EDT
We customers definitely welcome more competitors on the market
