Electric car skeptics complain about the high price of electric cars in the U.S. but that market problem can be attributed to at least three issues: supply chain problems, the resistance to small vehicles by both U.S. car dealers and many consumers, and concerns about driving range.
The best-selling electric vehicle in China is the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV. As of January 2022, sales since inception have passed 500,000 units since deliveries began in July 2020. Depending on type of battery, the range is from 75 to 110 miles. A 2022 model offered a 170-mile range. In 2020, the Mini EV had a price starting at US$4,162, and topped out at US$5,607 for a fully loaded model, making it China's cheapest electric car.
Provided it had enough driver leg room, I could live with a short-range electric vehicle, which might be enough of a car for many senior citizens and residents of urban areas with short commutes.
Nearly 3 million new all-electric and hybrid passenger cars were sold in China in 2021, accounting for 14.8% of the 20.15 million passenger cars sold overall
