a three wheel,
one seater,
won't doit for most people
Yep but most people would come later. What someone needs to do is design a simple modular battery system that can be swapped out easily, safely, and quickly at a "electric gas station".
This has promise and is not trying to build the perfect electric car in the first run but instead an electric car that some people will buy.
I still like my Vette. :-)
