Why should a company make a EV that retails for $60000 when you could use the same raw materials to make 100 ebikes that retail for $2500? Profit margins are already super slim for cars and need mass subsidy to be worthwhile

Post American vehicles
No, Seriously. Any insiders here want to divulge what the fuck Ford is actually doing? I feel that this is a death spiral of insanity by abandoning all of its smaller vehicles in favor of truck-o-mundo. Hell, the last vestige of this company, the Mustang is as mid as shit gets, and they're releasing this "offroad special" Mustang in 2025 to the tune of 100k... along with the mockery known as the Mach-E.
Luxury chasing is absolutely a terrible strategy. It builds off of a non-sustainable model for business that has a limited clientele, ultimately reducing an already limited market share.
