IF I were forced to get something all electric, maybe, IF they made it handle even better than ours right out of the factory somehow.

But given 'Murica's obsessive compulsion to only buy HUGE road tanks, I seriously doubt we would even get this thing here.

Highly doubt this would come here.
If I were in the market for a small EV, the Rivian R3 or a VW E-GTI would be a strong contender, or maybe the Slate truck

It would be an intriguing car if they could make it handle better than ours, but that seems unlikely given how much heavier even a small car like a Fiesta would be with an all-electric battery load.
One of the things I like best about our car is how light it is.

And I would consider ours a lil beefy... But I'm biased to early Honda hatches that weigh 2100

If Ford continues with this, they'll lose even more money. Look how much they lost by going electric already! I will NEVER, EVER buy an EV!

Things are different in the European market, which this car is intended for.

Putting their eggs in the pickup truck EV basket was a big mistake, as was naming an SUV Mustang. And Americans in general are not buying EVs, beyond the virtue signalers and early adopters. It will take more time and some other circumstances for EVs to be considered viable over here.
