minus-square@AuxlinkEnglish1•1 year agoVolvo acquired Polestar and they have some good EVs, but nothing small or cheap yet. Small, cheap and funky - that’s what Fiat is doing right now.

minus-square@TheIllustrativeManlinkEnglish1•1 year agoWith the new 500 estimated to start around $35k in the US, Fiat lost “cheap”. Super uncompetitive at that price though, we’ll see what happens. Can get a nearly new Polestar 2 for that. The $650/mo insurance bill killed that idea for me though.
