    This is why it is such a shame that all the major auto manufacturers could not be bothered to produce a decent cheap EV. They have repairability figured out from the start. They already have dealers, parts, crash safety, etc all worked out.

      The first two generations of the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Bolt are the closest to what you’re describing.

        The current Leaf and Bolt are under $30K. The first generations of leaf were garbage due to lack of battery temp control, the Bolt had major battery safety issues.
