This seems like a smart approach for building a new EV brand 10 years after the first gen EVs launched...
- Modular system with one simple frame
- Lean heavily into customization options
- Lean heavily into winning the low-cost market (the first point is a requirement to do so)
For me, the big unknowns right now are:
- How quickly can they scale up production? (they have Amazon backgrounds and funding, which makes me think they're serious... but scale is also very hard)
- How much does it cost with a 240 mile range? (i'd say 240 miles is the minimum viable range for an EV these days, the 150 base package will act more like a 100 mile EV in winter)
