What do you think about it though? Would you be interested in something like this? Does it sound quality? The early prototype looked solid but the new production model (made in china) looks leaps and bounds above the original. It looks on par with modern Kia cars today.

IMO, what you're getting for what you're paying would make this the best bang for the buck on the market. Supposedly they are going on sale THIS MONTH. I'm trying to get someone to contact me about one so I can see it in person.
I think that's the main thing. I agree that the interior looks very good, but you have to be inside it to know for sure.

Personally I can't get into it, but I can't give you a good reason. It looks like it's aiming to be a low-budget Aptera.

It reminds me of a gasoline version of this freeway-speed EV :
