A little on the tall side, aren't they? Still, nice to see some more electric options coming to North America.

Yes. For around the town driving the height/aerodynamics really don't matter too much. Considering this one gets 90miles per charge, I'd say it's pretty good.

My wife drives 3 miles to work every day. I'd love to get one of these cars for her commute.

It might appear unprepossessing, and it might be a bit on the slow side, but at least it's an affordable, highway-capable EV with practical range.

Too bad it appears that only a few hundred are coming to the U.S. for fleet use, from earlier articles that I've read.
