Oh hey, a car that's basically what I wanted. A reasonably sized and priced electric hatchback.

Not in the market for a new car though

That car is going to cost twice or even thrice as much. Alpine is a premium performance brand.

No one is buying EVs, tariffs and the economy is shit until 2030 or longer.

tariffs are confusing. Courts keep striking them down. Used EVs are doing very well in current gas crisis. Cheap subcompact hatchbacks should appeal for same general reason.
