It was available here, I remember when you pick up a used one for under $6000. The sales just got poor and it was pulled. Why the sales were bad is the question. I thought my 16 year old daughter might like the styling so I asked her if she liked it when we saw one and she definitely did not. If that style didn't appeal to a 16yo girl I don't know who they are targeting.

I agree it will struggle again next to the Bolt and big Bolt. I priced the bigger Bolt EUV and they had one for $30,000 sitting on the lot and it had $2500 worth of options. After Jan 1st that will qualify for at least a $3750 credit if not $7500. Seems a lot better than a 500e.
