It's not such a weird idea. I actually drove one years ago (converted Ford Escort) and rather liked it.

True but that's only one way to do it. What if you wanted a simpler car without AWD electric motors? Or to build an EV on an existing platform?

Then you will have to custom built it. Who will buy it if is a assembly line car ?
