But also there is no #US equivalent answer to say the #OpelRocks, #CitroenAmi or even #KeiCars for that matter, with some states having been lobbied by #US car makers to explicitly outlaw #PersonalLightVehicles for no valid reason (but that they cut into their margins)... I mean, ask @tikibunnyimports about the issues some #DMV|s will create for buyers who not just want to collect weird smol cars but actually drive them.

• Now granted, espechally when you let a convinced petrolhead with racing license like #MatthiasMalmedie drive that #PLV, you gonna see him dislike it and "not get it"...

And pricing-wise the #OpelRocksE needs to come down way more, with competing vehicles from "P.R." #China being about €1k cheaper in spite of penalty tarriffs...

• Still, we can all agree that we need #SmallerCars and with very few exceptions, a #PersonalLightVehicle makes way more sense than a jacked-up pickup truck that won't even fit into most urban roads in #Germany and espechally #Japan.

@pallenberg IMHO fehlt es an #PersonalLightVehicles statt #SuperUselessVehicles und vorallem an #günstig statt #Luxus...

• Ey gibt < €10.000 garnix und unter €20.000 kein #BEV (Noch nichtmals #VerarscheHybrid) außer wir zählen Fahrzeuge wie #OpelRocks & #CitroenAmi welche effektiv 4-rädrige #Kabinenroller (max. 4kW & 45km/h auf Straße/Reifen) sind.

Davon dass es egal welcher Bauart nix unter €12,5k mit #CCS2 Ladebuchse gibt mal ganz abgesehen...

• Dabei bedarf es vorallen einer #Verkehrswende, denn #Antriebswende allein wird nie reichen!

@Tealk @alsternerd Naja, viele #PersonalLightVehicle alla #OpelRocks & #CitroenAmi & #RenaultTwizy sowie diverse #Kabinenroller haben z.T. nur #Schuko-Gerätestecker und kein #CCS2!

• Das leistungsärmste Fahrzeug mit CCS2-Buchse das ich kenne ist nen "125er" (15kW / 90km/h) #BMW-Elektroroller…

@etchedpixels precisely THAT is my gripe.

If #CarManufacturers weren't hell-bent on making #cars +as per EC Vehicle Class M1), hey could easily do #CabinScooters of the #L2e & #L5e class for < €5k retail at dealerships and still make profit.due to #EconomiesOfScale.

• #CitroenAmi & #OpenRocks are kinda halfassed as they are half-baked efforts that work at reducing #FleetEmissions first and foremost!

#WhatsMissing are more #PersonalLightVehicles instead of #SuperUselessVehicles!

@Bluedonkey @Currywurst @KiwiEV you know that #RollsRoyce produces so few of them, they barely got "small scale type production" on?

Calling a luxury vehicle with single digit daily production is coreect by semantics, I'm shure Stellantis sells more #CitroënAmi & #OpelRocks in a day than Rolls Royce will sell Wraiths in a year.

• Otherwise you'd consider LADA to be a success on the German market by it's share as well...
