Or instead of an Aptera with a retracting tail people can just buy a normal vehicle that gets 100 MPGe. Most people will be VERY happy with "only" 100 MPGe.

VW went aggressively normal with the ID.4. It looks like a normal crossover, it is priced like a typical crossover (after incentives), and goes 250 miles on a charge. We will see how well it sells.

If you want people to buy EVs you should be happy automakers are finally focusing on popular market segments. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

If you like wagons the Kia EV6 looks promising. It is 60 or 61 inches tall depending on trim. For reference my Sportwagen is 59.2 inches tall and a Prius V was 62 inches tall.
