50k is not mass market.
Exactly.
We don't need 50K "challengers" to Tesla.
We need 20K challengers that real peoole might be able to afford.
Can you even buy a new ICE car for $20.000? Last time I was looking for a car a 5 year old Citroen berlingo cost around that. What can you get for 20.000? A basic Toyota yaris? Hybrid yaris costs <30k but I feel like when Americans say they want $20.000 electric car they mean electric SUV with 600km range. Yeah, that's not happening.
