"If it weren't for the batteries, EVs would be much cheaper than ICE vehicles."

And yet I've watched as $/kWh for battery component prices is 1/3rd of what it was 8 years ago (when I got my Chevy Volt) but EV prices have not appreciably gone down.

Yeah I think this is a combination of greater range and the ceasing of EV subsidization.

It would be nice if there were some options that had much less range than is now possible, at a substantial discount.

There are many smaller “city” evs hitting the market that offer this. Renault 5 and Hyundia Inster etc.

		Cool, hopefully won't be limited to physically small cars. Many people with medium-sized cars only go 30 miles/day regularly, and rarely need more than 100 miles of range. Most days I'm under 20, and 90% of the time I'm under 40.
