This is nonsense. Even in China, the appeal of small, mini-EVs is limited to densely populated, urban cities. China's problem here is that the battery tech the Chinese gov't is promoting and pushing for export is less energy efficient and heavier (and loses a lot of capacity in cold) strictly limiting its use to entry-level, low-range EVs.

Actually not only small ones but also some high class premium ev cars produced in China. It’s fierce competition on going now in China within Chinese car brands.

Here is the summary: Small electric vehicles are currently unavailable in Europe. They are made well in China. The only way to get them is to import them. That's the process I'm currently going through.

As long as it is structurally safe in a accident, it makes sense for people who simply need basic transportation. Revision: I was informed the mini EV max speed is about 30 mph. Make sense since a crash at 65 mph in these tiny EV looks fatal. OK for city driving only. I would feel unsafe driving a tiny EV at 65 mph.

As a Chinese I am very happy to hear or see such news that the chinese EV will be sold in EU. On the other hand I hope also VW can provide the more convincible and affordable product to the market to meet the demand of customer.

If BYD bring the new Seagull to the UK & slap a £10k price sticker on it, I'll be first in the queue to buy one. As the world (but thankfully not the UK) bakes in record heat, we absolutely need to go green BUT NOT AT ANY PRICE. It has to be affordable. The Chinese understand this, already have products ready to ship & we in the west should buy their cheap EVs..

The reason why China has such cheap cars because of very low (outdated) mandatory national standard for crashworthiness (Only 50kph front 100% crash test). After mid 2020s, China will mandatory side crash test for all small passenger vehicles. Thus lots of cheap cars (especially vans) will no longer available on the market.

Unlike the US and Canada, the EU has been making more serious strides in offering viable mobility alternatives to urban driving.

There is one EV that can bridge the gap between smog filled skies and the clean air goal. It's the Geely Panda Mini EV. It can reach 62 mph if the specs are to be believed.

This is the car whose performance numbers I seek to replicate in my Fiat 500 when I convert it. It's laughable that the governments and businesses of Western countries expect their citizens to pay more for something than is reasonable. It's good for tax revenue and helps to oppress the people who are stupid enough to fall in line. The trouble is that most westerners do jump in line to get the next big thing. By the time I might convert my Fiat, there may be a very good deal on a used EV because many people only keep their cars for 3 years.

The electric VW ID3 price in China is only around 17k euro

It seems to me the right direction. They must have gotten idea from kei-car(and Nissan Sakura) popularity.

This Wuling Mini EV is being sold in Vietnam at double the price excluding taxes and fees

Interesting video. But your color choice for pie chart need improvement. One will simply be confused in differentiating light blue, blue, dark blue and very dark blue.

5:50 how to make the chart look better. The background is of no use, so it's fine to put the price under the percentage. Bring more contrast to the color, same scheme different brightness (make the darkest brighter and the brightest even brighter) Title should be: Prices of ... in EU

The new Renault 5e and Citroen E-C3 are due next year, they should be relatively affordable small EVs. I like the look of Renault 5.

@@tooltalkcorrect. The Dacia Spring is coming straight from China. As are the electric Mini, the new smart.

China also makes big EVs, I. e. electric buses

The USA is not ready for all electric cars yet. Small cars are great but gas engines are still the best way to go.

Yes

In China, German fuel cars are classified as top brands, but German electric cars are simply classified as "other brands."

thy should focus on countries like bangladesh where small cars have a big demand

Small but functional KEV is the best.

Germany is going pro china day by day

By the time European manufacturers have woken up it will pretty much be game over. The ID4 and 3 simply doesn't compete in China. Q

How about crash tests and self-igniting batteries?

if bicycle a allowed to be ride on the road without any sort of protection other than the rider's helmet, small electric cars with basic safety features like air bags should also be allowed.

Technically and legally speeking, simply compare to the wellknown Ape trikes. Model 200 comes with a max. speed of 61 km/h and is even allowed to drive on German Autobahn. Will not survive any crash test. No ABS or airbag. However, no original EV ape available here, but e.g. for the Indian market. To be more realistic, such an EV would be well suited for small towns without regular public transport.

Do Car makers in Germany make driving too complcated nowadays? Should the keep it "more simple" and (with it) more affordable?

U can even afford 2 cars and keep one fully charged and ready to go

Is it safe?
