Is this a joke?
No more a joke than any other Stellantis vehicle.
Have you seen the Renault Twizy? Top selling plug in electric vehicle in Europe in 2012, and it looks even more like a sci-fi concept car.
Yes that's ridiculous too, the thing is kind of cute, but the price of that type of vehicle is insane.
Here that's not called a car, but a cabin scooter. Like this:

They are way to expensive, but can be driven legally under different laws than a real car, and that make them cheaper to have.
IDK why that type of what isn't more than an E-Bike with a tiny cabin are so expensive? 10 years ago you could get an actual ICE car for that price, that could drive 130 km/h on Autobahn, and could take 4 passengers and drive 500 km on a tank.
Do the math. With fuel savings and easy parking, it's a free car in 5 years. No, 10 years ago you could not buy an ICE car for €10,000.
Doesn't change the fact that they are overpriced.
Relative to Chinese options, yes. But this has a dealer network for support.
Y'know those fishing tales told by ICE officers are as real as Abagnale's stories, right?
It's like we're all in on it
