This drives me crazy. Take a solid platform like the FRS.. electrify it for something equiv to 300/300 and give it a 200 mile range. No fancy interior, lots of plastic, no lane assist etc. It would be fun and affordable. Same platform could be used for a more refined crossover.
I feel like Honda really should have done some type r civic thing but with electric.
I really do think this will happen in the near future. Right now, every company is targeting the high end segment and slowly making it's way down.
I fucking love my frs. I can't stand seeing the interiors on even just fancy ICE cars now, much less electrics. My wife's traverse has a horrifically unintuitive touchscreen interface for the radio and rear A/C. My car is like the last of a dying breed. Have almost 150k miles now. It's a dream.
That's cool.. 150k? Nice. I regret not getting one when i had the chance but I felt like it should had at least a small turbo. And i wasn't overly confident with the aftermarket stuff. That said the gt86 platform is quite a base to build on.
But yeah, i hate the trend of a big touchscreen to do everything. Sometimes i wonder if it's just getting old but I really feel like the UIs are awful.
Display is ok for GPS and maybe some audio but I certainly prefer standard tactile interface methods. You are right, dying breed. Enjoy your ride!
