What are the US market examples at a similar price point or lower with same or better specs?

The Nissan Leaf is US$27,800 Retail, and is eligible for all EV rebates which lowers the cost closer to US$20,000: https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/electric-cars/leaf.html

And it's a way better, 4-door highway-capable car.

Yes.., but the name doesn't come from au-tito or the little truck name "camione-tita"

I think that, with u$20k you can buy a tito, a Liliana fan, 6 square meters of sheets and a pole to sail when the engine is overused and you still have money to roast a barbecue for you and friend. And maybe roast that piece of ugly engineering too..

-_-

The Arcimoto FUV (https://www.arcimoto.com/fuv) starts at $18,000, can actually manage highway speeds (unlike the TITO), and has a roll cage built to match US passenger car standards.
