Do you mean something like Aptera? https://aptera.us/

This really excites me. I had 2 Cybertruck reservations, I cancelled them and ordered an Aptera. I think this is what we really need: smaller car with efficiency in mind.

Those things are the Duke Nukem Forever of electric cars. I remember them taking reservations back in the 00s. I love the idea but I have no idea how the company still exists as they haven't delivered anything in almost two decades.
Per wikipedia: Founded in 2006, returned deposits and then went out of business in 2011. Relaunched in 2019.
I like the Aptera, but no, I mean more small EVs like the Chevy Bolt.
I believe that car was the one Ed Begley Jr was driving in his Simpsons cameo
