Stellantis is absolute dogshit. Per example, the C3 is a combustion car with an electric motor (and a battery). It has no electric perks. I hated it. Electric cars need pure electric platforms.
Interesting! Can you explain what you missed and what you’d have needed in the C3? Why can’t you build an electric car alongside an ICE car and have a good EV?
No one‑pedal driving, no regeneration settings (actually there aren’t settings for most features). The D for drive is on a lever you pull backward and R is forward. When D was selected the car crept forward like a combustion‑engine vehicle without pressing the pedal. Fake and poor range estimate. Slow charging speed. I don’t remember everything, but I know I hated driving it compared to my Kia EV3.
EVs need a dedicated electric platform so they can have a larger battery, a frunk, and no central transmission hump inside the cabin.
Edit: A dedicated electric platform also means software built for electric vehicles (not shared with an ICE platform).

I would never buy a Stellantis car. Stellantis is the bargain bin of the automotive industry and you get what you pay for.
I don’t know. I’ve had a Fiat 500 electric for almost four years, and I love it!
Same with the Mercedes EQA, EQB and EQC.

Thanks! I’ve never driven an EV and it shows
I’m pretty sure you CAN do it because from everything I see, the new BMW i cars (so not the 3 or 8) are pretty great?
