Forget the imagined future. What's needed now is a sled complete with batteries and electric motor(s) utilizing regular tires. You know how many people in places like Detroit have the skill set to build electric cars with that small amount of help? Create a fiberglass body, source an interior and software and you're in business.
Admittedly you won't compete against Tesla or the Big 3 but there are plenty of niches where you might. They won't all be sports cars either. Taxis, police cars or special purpose delivery vehicles.
There are small profitable niches where no one has even entertained the idea of battery powered cars yet. I love the idea of a one pizza car company operating out of what now is an abandoned warehouse in Detroit.
