MODERATORS
Sorry if it came across as dismissive as that wasn't my intention, I think it's a great looking little thing, just that it's not an alternative to a "real" car. It's in a different (legal) category, can be driven without a license and can only access secondary roads etc (I don't live in France anymore and not super aware of what category L6e can and cannot do but for example it definitely can't go on the highway).
If all you need is to grab your groceries etc from the next village, then yes it looks like it could do that. It does look like it's legit but still in preorder phase. Realistically I think most people buying this either don't really need a car or have more vehicles and are getting this for the fun factor.
This is exactly the kind of usages I imagine the market target is. Namely I believe it's :
but rather, as you suggest, going from one small town to another, say 50km radius or less. It's while one lives in the country side to go to the farmer market on Thursday. It's to go from and to work from the suburb, without proper bus, even less tram, to work downtown, etc.
I imagine it's basically where most people who wouldn't feel "adventurous" enough to use an electric bike, due to the bad weather or workload, could use something just a big bigger.
