Small EVs and efficient people carriers update familiar names for the modern age.
There is a criminal lack of electric minivans on the market today,
Yes please, we need more of these, especially with slid8ng passenger doors. I’m embracing my unc status and wanting a family car even before having my own family.
I am convinced of the minivan (mini MPV) supremacy.
Luckily (?) the country I’m living in there’s a few options from Chinese brands but they all emulate the high end fridge on wheels vellfires or alphards.
I’m in the US, you can have any EV you want as long as it is a half baked crossover. What I really want is a maximally efficient low slung aerodynamic wagon.
It’s all fucking junk. Everybody here wants a giant tank, I hate it.
It’s freedom! We’re free to not be permitted to buy certain car brands.
Real competition would ruin their share dividends.
Made for the civilized streets of Europe, not the kill-or-be-killed Mad Max hellscape of the the automotive United States.
Edit: Are we making an exception for Rome?
Tell me you have never been oversea’s (let alone drove there) without telling me you have never been overseas.
Everywhere in the world people drive like ass hats. It part of the human condition.
Yes, but the problem in the US is we have several generations of cars built to be “safe” for the driver, which means more dangerous for everyone else, meaning drivers of large vehicles drive wrecklessly with absolutely no fear for their own lives and aren’t removed from the gene pool.
I was driving from coast to coast in the US granted, a good while ago when there were still much fewer ass clown oversized trucks on the road (but still more than enough anyhow), in a Sedan. Didn’t feel too stressed to be honest. Where it gets really dangerous real fast is if you dare to walk anywhere outside of the few somewhat pedestrian friendly areas in the country.
Taxi drivers take it to the next level tho. First time I rode a taxi in Tallinn was pretty white knuckle.
Guangzhou, China takes the cake. I was there for a few weeks. Wrong side of the road, wrong way on one way streets, ON THE FUCKING SIDEWALKS w/ ped traffic. It was insane!
Dominican Republic is a distant second, there was order to the chaos I could see after a few weeks… China it was pure entropy at its finest!
But only in Germany the Hilti Pasat is trying to breake any speed record om existence
Rome is easy mode… farther south it starts to look like GTA on a slow day
The E-T16 has 818 hp and torque vectoring.
That car looks like it was taken from cyberpunk or something
Looks more Cyberpunk than the Cybertruck.
i just want to see the hands of the person who designed that steering wheel
6 fingers of slop.
looks more like two on each hand
I imagined this and it frustrated me. Thank you.
If only they actually produced concept cars :/ It looks sick
Shit that’s cool. Of course america can’t have it. We get f 150s. Fucking yay.
Why does a car need 805hp for public roads.
Does it need it? No. Do I want it? Yes.
If it’s like my experiences with Peugeot, you’ll have a nice car but one window will never work properly.
Holy shit balls… don’t mind my drool
Can you bullseye womp-rats in this T-16 back home?
For a second I thought this was a proper super hatchback but the pic with it next to people makes it look huge.
Fully electric, and affordable, so of course Americans aren’t allowed to have them.
Isn’t that always the case?
You will drive your 15 liter Ford f150000 baby killer MAX-CAB™ big weiner edition and you will like it, mister!

The French have the best-looking Ev’s by far
Ev’s
EVs. Save the apostrophes from over-harvesting.
Just leave my Eevees alone.
Why? Not looking for a Jolteon? Vaporeon?
Nobody wants to over harvest Eevees! Not sure their population could handle it any further! They (and their evos) are already like a top 10 favorite Pokémon.
I prefer cycles but to each their own.
The EV possess the by
Ye’s, grocer’s everywhere appreciate 'saving the apo’strophe’s for their u’se. :)
False:
The Fiat Multipla Is Back
https://insideevs.com/news/811536/fiat-multiplay-concept-modular-suv-minivan/
Still looks better than a cyber truck.
Holy fuck, leave it to Fiat to make the next gen ugliest car
Damn they somehow made it look more ugly and way less fun
That’s Italian, and if you’re falling for the Multipla trap again that’s on you.
The Multipla, the car everyone hates, and everyone bought.
It is a good thing that EU car makers are developing new models, but why do they have to be ‘inspired’ by decades old models in terms of looks?
Retro-revival trends happen every few decades in the car world. We were due for another one.
As long as it means interesting looking cars, I’m all for it!What’s wrong with that? The essential thing is that those models are based on proper only electric platforms and not some max-compromise combined platform with ICE models.
I wholeheartedly agree that EVs should not be built as tanks. I just think that it’s a bit lazy to rehash 50s or 80s design in order to make a car interesting. I know, in those times they were not designed in a wind tunnel, but c’mon.
I have friends who drive an EV built by Dacia. It looks ugly, as all Dacias do, but at least it looks like a car from the 2020s. Or at least the 2010s…
BTW, I am not dissing ugly cars. I drive a Korean car, so I do not care much for looks anyway. :-P
I swear had I this exact 2cv when I was 5 years old! I wonder if they fixed the annoying whining.
I have to admit that I waited until I was a little more than 5 years old to take on car ownership 😳
Tell me you’re not French without telling me you’re not French.
Weak.
Built from Lego, right?
Or Playmobil
Style and taste are back! 💪😎✌️
Those are
alljust concepts thoughSometimes concept cars manage to get through relatively unscathed.
The Renault 5 and the Renault Twingo revivals spring to mind.I love the looks of both of these, they’re brilliant, just had a new Twingo behind me on my drive home today. My guess is that these appeal to my generation who were kids when things like the original Renault 5 were around. My dad drove us around in a Renault 4 when we were kids…
Plymouth Prowler
The 2CV is already scheduled and will sell for €13K.
The R5 isn’t a concept car anymore but one of Renault’s best sellers and it is extremely close its concept car version. Same goes for the Renault Twingo.
That said, the 2CV concept car looks like it would have to change more to become street legal and a reasonable product.
It’s so cute, I want one.
the citroen deja vu looks amazing. shame about the range, it would barely get me to work and back in summer.
