What does it weigh? 1700 kg or so? Each time you're taking the car, that's what you take on your trip with you. Average occupancy of a car trip is 1.2 person. Start there if you want to reduce your mobility footprint. Smaller cars need less materials to make and batteries to propel them, less kWh as well. Besides, what's preventing other car makers from pasting cells all over their streamlined EVs as well? Hardly a unique selling point, especially not at the price Lightyear is asking.
