A huge part of that issue in america at least is related to the CAFE standards which basically made it economically unviable to build small and effecient cars. Unfortunately i think american evs will also be bigger and heavier than needed which means they’ll need a bigger battery, have a higher cost, remain deadly for pedestrians and take up lots of urban space.
I’m familiar with CAFE standards but US politicians don’t seem to have much intent on changing them.
And it is not economically unviable, it is just not as profitable because every other country produces and sells properly sized cars with a profit (except maybe Australia).
