BYD already have the Atto 1 (sub AUD30K here) as do other EV manufacturers (eg Nissan Leaf).

Tesla could stop spending money on bullshit like the Cybertruck and spend it on vehicles that people actually need/want.

Don't forget Renault 5!

    And the Renault 4, the Hyundai Inster, and the Dacia Spring, and the Citroën C3, Fiat 500e, Kia EV3, Leapmotor T03.

    There are heaps of small/subcompact EVs on the European market now, all with very competitive prices. The newer ones seem to be getting cheaper and cheaper.

    Honestly I reckon a Tesla M2 will have a hard time succeeding in this market.

    Interestingly, the Renault 5 Turbo 3E is more Cyberpunk than anything Tesla is making!

    Is it an good car ?

      Good enough that Ford is planning to slap their badge on it and hope Europe doesn't forget Ford while they are busy not actually manufacturing EVs.

All the big European car manufacturers also have EV cars too.

Plus there are plenty of popular options for high-end EVs that are far more glamorous as well as practical than the Cybertruck.
