    Economies of scale are huge for vehicles. A single prototype vehicle like a model y or mach e often costs several million dollars. A custom car might not be that much, but it’d still be a ton.

        Ask a local engineering university if they want to get rid of their old electric baja. I don’t know how much they cost the university, and they’re probably not street legal, but if they’re making a new one each year you might be able to get the old one for cheap.

          Let’s just say the quality of education in our universities are below subpar. I don’t think they ever made anything. All that is taught is theories.

          Also, for some reason car went x3+ their prices since 2015 and still going up.

          Yeah, i meant something with a body made of tubes of aluminum , a seat and a motor with some batteries that can go to 50km/h (30miles/h?) for doing some rides in the desert.
