U.S$30,000 = approx. $65,000 - $70,000 Kiwi inclusive of GST by the time Giltrap as the distributor gets their greedy paws on it.
You can buy a new well regarded (eg Toyota Corolla / Honda Civic) similar sized ICE engine car for less than half that money and have no range anxiety. Even then I think most Kiwi buyers of vehicles this size buy them second hand. Most popular price range last time I checked for the average person is a second hand buy in the range of $12,000 - $15,000. Plenty of that type of business still to be done in that price range well into the 2040's in my opinion.
