'Pickup trucks' is another category where you can find various use cases. The Nobe interests me as little as the Elio. As in very.

I like Arcimoto because they can offer five different models on their basic chassis, while Aptera is locked into that Morelli form. That and the local-boy-makes-good aspect with roots in game developers and The Whiteaker. I worked for a Eugene computer game company in the 1980s. Their development process took a decade but it was really smart. Sandy Munro will get them into mass production.

My ideal would be an Arcimoto chassis with Edison2 front inwheel suspension and Aptera-style full pontoon fenders. The Eagle door they showed early on and never perfected. And a sheared, braked and spot welded stainless steel shell for the main body and fenders.
