Model 3 is the cheapest hatchback on the American market as of now. Buying new and not getting NACS will be painful in the coming years as well. I know Elon is a piece of shit, but it’s sad that exactly zero other manufacturers beat the model 3 price+range of any model on offer at the moment. Otherwise, there’s the base model Ioniq 5. End of List.
It’s such a shame that car manufacturers are so slow to innovate and compete with Tesla, but that’s where we’re at at the moment until Chinese cars are allowed to be sold stateside. I’d buy Chinese tomorrow if it were available here. Western car manufacturers are fucked; check out the Xaiomi Su7, BWD, etc.
I’ve never seen the model 3 hatchback in person. I wasn’t even aware it existed. But I’m not touching that company and that was true since the beginning. The Apple-like repair model is abhorrent.
The ionic 5 is still too big and too SUV-like for my taste.
Just give us a proper eGolf please, is that too much to ask (apparently it is).
Oh absolutely. However, the Leaf is bad for every other reason besides its acceleration speed though.
Is there any alternative? I’m looking for a EV hatchback, they stopped making the Bolt and the Golf (and the Golf had no range)
