Hyundai launches sub-$15,000 electric Ioniq V, but not for you
Original: Hyundai launches electric Ioniq V for under $15,000, but you can’t have it
Hyundai has launched the electric Ioniq V, a compact electric vehicle priced under $15,000, according to Electrek. The catch is availability: the affordable EV will not be sold in major Western markets, and buyers in those regions cannot purchase it. The launch highlights how automakers are targeting ultra-low-cost EVs at developing markets first, leaving consumers elsewhere waiting for similar affordable options.
Why now: People are reacting to the frustration of an extremely cheap new EV that is not available in their markets
