    Yeah, but for 25K, before taxes, you get crank windows, <300km of real range, potential safety hazards because now everything can be dismantled and screws are exposed everywhere, the worst electric motor efficiency, etc etc. Slate is DOA, and I bet they don’t improve any of the huge pain points until 5 years in, or they just straight up go under.
