Good points. They seemed to have assumed that only avid environmentalists would want an electric car and if they dangled one with environmentally friendly labeled interior materials that these people would swoon and throw money at them without seriously evaluating other aspects.
That said, I was pleased with the driving of the i3 during the test drive I did. The interior was acceptable IMO. And while I disliked the looks when it first came out, that is starting to grow on me.
Each car in this space provides different driving experience, utility, range and value propositions. Each will find a certain market share, except I guess for the Miev. Some will be winners and some will be losers. Over time, the market will evolve and the car companies will figure out what works and what doesn't. In the meantime, I'm ecstatic to see the number of options available and the increasing range capabilities vs. when I went shopping and bought my Leaf in 2013.
