Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses

There are already affordable EVs in Europe, as an example the Dacia Spring which has the same 230km autonomy and even lower price (18-19.000€ retail final price to consumer in Portugal which has high taxes on new vehicles).
Not as snazzy looking though, that’s what’s really important! /s

They won’t stop until even the pedals are touch buttons, are they?

I really don’t mind it, having driven a Tesla for a year it wasn’t bad at all.

Well I drive a heavily touch-screenified car, and I hate it. Have had the damn thing for almost a year but I still get nervous when I have to adjust the A/C.

I looked up the Dacia Spring and it says, that it’s manufactured in China.

The manufacturing county of the world is manufacturing this car?
skeesx@lemm.ee 2 days ago
Dacia is a small Romanian brand with a single plant, so learning that some are rebranded Renaults from China is quite surprising.

It might also surprise you to learn that Dacia is actually a large French conglomerate.
They’ve been fully owned by Renault for more than two decades.

I see, I guess their single plant can’t keep up with demand.

I doubt the production version will look that snazzy, I bet it’ll end up being much taller and look more like this: 1000004894
