    I'm just curious, what is the cost to replace the battery? I've heard for most EV's it's much more than to replace a gas engine.

    Your new car looks really nice! Very stylish. Give us a report after you drive it a bit.

      My impression is that nobody wants to say this aloud but the plan seems to be to dispose the whole car together with battery.

          Did you trim with options, eg AWD, wireless charging, blind-spot monitors, etc?

            Nope. We took only the basics. Which already contains a lot in a Hyundai.

                You wouldn't go fast, or far, but you'd by stylin' when you did!

                  Doesn't look like a car I'd want in Chicago, or Germany for that matter.

                  I'd also have trepidation about buying a car from Alibaba.

                      I was only joking
