The BZ4X that was recalled because the wheels fall off ? Has that been rereleased yet ?

Apparently it has been rereleased. Still not good.

Basic vehicles tend to be like that, yes.

The wheels tend to fall off on basic vehicles ? I hope you're joking.

Btw the BZ4X isn't priced like a basic vehicle -$42k++ isn't exactly entry level and the same price range as a Mustang Mach E, low end Tesla Model 3 or VW id3 with much better spec

No, sorry, that reply was intended for somebody else. Lemmy app struggles.

Mach E and Tesla aren’t “no frills”. I thought that was the request. At the moment, with tax credit, you can get a new Model 3 for 33k. Since Chevy killed the Bolt, I’m pretty sure that’s the cheapest EV on the market. But it wasn’t considered “no frills”
