The XL1 is exactly the kind of thing I mean. Only because it costs 150k doesn't mean this can't be produced cheaper, especially using all electric components once batteries become cheaper thanks to mass production. From what I get, the main reason why the Tesla S doesn't look similar to the XL1 is because they wanted it to appear 'normal' so people wouldn't feel estranged by it.
