I live near the beach and in the summer time I've seen quite a few of those Moke LSV in the area. But its also a low speed vehicle that doesn't go faster then 25 MPH either.
I saw other articles mention they may target the "golf cart" market....meaning there are areas down here where fancy golf carts are able to drive on the roads, so they're targeting that demographic? Seems like a tiny slice of the pie to the point of why bother?
But I guess nothing else has worked for Fiat in the US, so why not?
As pointed out in the other thread, I'm guessing Ford will use this partnership for smaller vehicles than what they're planning on CE1 at this time - otherwise, it's very confusing.
How is that a me problem? I buy product A that is supposed to do X, Y, and Z. It doesn't do X properly, Y or all, and the app doesn't even show the option for Z. How on earth is that a me problem? WTH?
I'm just confused why Ford invested all this money and time into developing an affordable EV platform if they're just gonna partner with other companies to build affordable EVs for them.
Maybe it's a case of Ford wanting to partner with another brand to minimize risk. If these affordable EVs turn out to be wildly successful, they'll bring CE1 based EVs to those markets a few years later?
I'm just struggling to make sense of this move.
