    A list of:

    • Not available yet.
    • May never be available.
    • Yeah right.
    • Dude! What are you smoking?

      If that FT-Se even comes out in the next decade, which I doubt finding one especially for MSRP will be impossible. Every Toyota dealership will treat it like an exotic and attach huge markups to it like they do with every one of their desirable cars.

      It’s really more a list of “upcoming EVs, plus a few concept cars.”

      The only “what are you smoking” thing here is taking at face value a rumor about a hovering EV from Tesla marketing people because Elon had a little too much Ketamine and proposed a flying electric car once.

      Everything else here is probably going to happen, maybe not quite in the forms we’re seeing.

      Some of these cars are clearly about to come out too, like the Ioniq 5 N, the Lambo, and the Lotus Crossover (the latter two are low production vehicles to begin with, so it’s not like “oh they can’t scale it up” is a real issue - they never were planning on scaling production up anyway. And another good chunk are obviously coming from OEMs that know what they’re doing, like the next Taycan, the VW GTI, and the other Porsche EVs.

    So the message here is to wait 3+ years to get bent over at the dealership by markups if you ever want to drive a decently priced EV sports car, doubly so if you want a 2 door…

    I like how they included a list of EV sportscars which are either concept or won’t be available for years down the road, and didn’t even bother to include the MG Cyberster, literally a 2 seat all electric convertible which is already in production and will be starting customer delivery within a few months from now…
