Expensive (95k) but has a cool design: https://www.scottenmotors.com/ev-builds
I would love a smaller car that is also repairable EV.

Also the owner of the company is in the hackaday comments.

I used to drive a 2004 Ranger and loved it. Would absolutely love an EV version even if the range isn't super great. Mostly need a truck occasionally and for hauling stuff from the home improvement store or if I find furniture at a garage sale or something.

Need to check and see if that $20,000 no-frills EV truck is making any progress.

Yep, that's the one.

I'll reserve a phone but not a truck, lol. Looks like those are scheduled to be out late 2026, so probably at least next year before I can even think about getting my hands on one.

At least it's still a thing.
