The entire point of the current and the classic pandas is a small car with four wheel drive that is popular with farmers and rural people and in snowy mountain regions in Italy (and less popular with me being stuck behind one on the motorway). And they're indestructible. This seems to just be a random electric car that has borrowed some visual design elements from it 😐

An actual electric panda would be great. Small, cheap, fast enough, but can trudge across difficult terrain when needed. Forever. My mum would buy it.

That's the perfect size for me, a subcompact SUV. I don't know why EVs are either sedans or big trucks/SUVs.
