I'm sure this will be banned in America. 1) Because its an EV, 2) price is too low which means the poors can afford it 3) not a giant truck that literally cant fit into a parking space

They will claim “small cars don’t sell well in the US based on current sales numbers” but will not note that they don’t currently sell any small cars so of course they don’t sell well. It’s the same ‘logic’ used to only offer black, white, and silver cars, especially in better trim options.

Everything has been focus grouped to death. Here's a grayscale crossover, enjoy.

Compact sedans sell decently well in the US. Civic, Corolla, etc. There are so few subcompact options, and the ones that exist aren't super compelling, so it's hard to draw any conclusions from that segment.

I only opened the comment section of this post to see if they announced plans for it to be sold in North America. As expected, no.
