The image is of a Changan Lumin, one of the low-cost EVs on the market in China. It is but an example. The long range version sells for less than $7500 in China. Is it coming to the west? Well, it or something like it certainly is. Here in Guatemala there is a Changan dealer. While they are not selling any of the electrics yet, I expect to see them before the end of the year.
Now, it won’t cost $7500 here but I would guess $15,000 or less. Not a bad price for a new EV that will cost about nothing to drive. And, the Lumin is but one example. Cheaper EVs are on the way. The Electric Viking has more to say about this.
