The problem is ironically only exacerbated by electrification as the market for EVs seems to be divided in two: You must seemingly choose between very small cars such as the MiEV, or the gargantuan likes of Teslas. There are no electrical MPVs or stationwagons. And with no carbon emissions, people have less qualms about picking the SUV, turning a blind eye to the production emissions and safety hazards.

There is something in the middle like VW ID Buzz https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_ID._Buzz with the size of a SUV and quite a good range between 400 and 600 km. And without SUV safety issues like limited observability. Not too many Vans like this around, but I think they will gain popularity. Obviously Mercedes Vito will be a good base for EV Van.
