The original air cooled Beetle was super simple to work on. Once you had done it a few times, you could pull the engine, rebuild it, and reinstall it in an afternoon (assuming you had parts already on hand).

If BEVs are ever to be mass market that ac beetle model needs to be replicated....

It already has, in China. China has tons of simple BEVs. Time will tell whether that’s what Americans will want, though.
