Have you looked at Kia Kona EVs.
I think they are close to Fit’s size
- jetofff 2y agoThe kona is close, but is larger in every dimension and still has less cargo space than a Fit. https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/honda-jazz-fit-2017-5-door-hatchback-vs-hyundai-kona-2023-suv-electric/ https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/honda-jazz-fit-2017...
- jwells89 2y agoIt’s close-ish but about 5” longer. Might consider with a good lease deal, but the high number of recalls on Hyundai/Kia vehicles is concerning. Have read they’re also more expensive to insure.
- SkyPuncher 2y agoHyundai/Kia just makes the news because it’s trendy. Our 2020 Hyundai is the most reliable vehicle we’ve owned. All of our other vehicles have comparable level of recalls. In fact, our Ford currently has a recall because the rear axle bolts are at risk of sheering off. Major issue, but not something that makes headline news.
- ramesh31 2y agoKia is getting close, but they still refuse to break the $30k barrier. The floodgates to EV adoption will open for the first manufacturer to sell 60kwH+ for a true sticker price under $25k. That's enough range with a payment right at the edge of affordability for most Anericans.
- yummypaint 2y agoWe are already there if you include used EVs. For people who already have an ICE vehicle, something with 25-30 usable kwh for <$10k is totally viable and attainable.
- jwells89 2y agoStrongly agree. Of course, it’ll also help if dealers actually stock base models (very common for them to only stock mid-trims and up) and don’t sandbag them with massive markups.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoThe way the government incentives work for imports you have to lease rather than buy to get the good price. But you can lease the Kona EV, Toyota bz4x and its sister the Solterra for under $200 a month.
