There's one segment of electric vehicles even Tesla is late to — everyone from Amazon to automakers is racing to build the perfect electric delivery van

They're efficient, emissions free, and fit perfectly within existing EV charging networks.

With cities becoming more congested, increasing emissions rules, and an uptick in home delivery thanks to the coronavirus, electric delivery vans are set to take center stage, according to Morgan Stanley. And it's more than just the automakers racing to build the perfect one. So far, however, electric vehicles have largely remained constrained to the high-end consumer market. The most obvious example, of course, being Tesla, which handily outsells other EV makers in most markets, especially the United States. Cargo vans like Mercedes' Sprinter, on the other hand, have found their place in the market but remain gasoline-powered.

In hindsight Tesla’s first mass produced vehicle should not have been a midsized sedan with a tiny trunk which represents an ever shrinking market. It probably should have been the Y, a small SUV with a hatch.

j_snibs Amazon ordered 100k units of delivery vehicles from your ugly EV maker. That's the only thing that'll make them a relevant company 😌.

Maybe a takeover of this German company, that can, could solve the problem:
