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.

This is cool but I think the reason Ford isn't selling many trucks is because they are expensive. And this at $95k... cool but too expensive for me. I realize batteries are expensive but they need to start making cheaper EVs. Not everyone can afford a luxury car/truck and the Lightning, while cool, is definitely a luxury truck.
