And I can hardly wait to test drive one of those. Although I don't think that I would fit in it. Those really are minis. And I can hardly wait to test drive one of those.

This will I think force manufacturers to accelerate their production and deployment plans for the cars they can sell (or even pre-sell to order), namely the EVs. This means that the transition to EVs far from being gradual might be higly disruptive and damaging to the convential car industry in the short term - especially to those that have not entered or are late into the race. Truly this scenario would be a brutal revenge of the electric car.
