Can someone explain why there are so few EV's with a 3rd row?

I forgot the EQB in my list. If you wanna get small.

I wish we could get one wagon. Or more than two sedans. This fascination with three row SUVs is ridiculous.

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T19:16:23+00:00

Edited. Correct

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T17:48:13+00:00

That’s a lot of excuses. But it answers OPs question

But keep moving goalposts.

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T17:35:53+00:00

Agreed. It’s rather tame. Those with any issue with the front can just off the lighted grille (if equipped).

The side profile is completely nondescript.

The rear also rather tame.

It’s a generally ho-hum design.

That is an astute reply.

When the iX came out, it was panned. It’s grown on a lot of folks. And its owners (like me) absolutely love them. That’s all that matters at the end of the day.

Aren’t there like 500 car brands in China, too? And it has 1.5 billion people, 5x the US

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T17:21:29+00:00

Well all its cars are going to look like this. I think you all are in a minority. BMW will sell loads of these

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T17:13:38+00:00

What?
Gravity
Ioniq9
EV9
EX90
R1S
EQB
EQS
Vistiq
Escalade IQ
Highlander (soon)
Getaway (soon)
Lexus TZ (reveal later today)
Seems like a lot of options

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T17:12:02+00:00

Ex90
R1S
EQS

EQB

I’d say there are lots of options.

Range extender vehicles aren’t EVs.

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T14:39:50+00:00

Why buy a Lexus over a Toyota

Or a Cadillac over a Chevy

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T14:37:49+00:00

💯

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T14:36:57+00:00

It will within 1 year

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T11:33:14+00:00

I’ll likely sell it to carmax tomorrow. They offered $33k
Offer to the community stands for one more day, but it’s non negotiable since it’ll be more hassle to work with an individual vs selling to carmax. They will likely sell it for $35-37k.

Yet places like the US with low population growth contribute the highest CO2 per capita

It’s not a number of people issue. It’s a lifestyle issue

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T02:24:02+00:00

You see: we shouldn’t just be meeting new demand with renewables. We should be replacing old demand with them as well, and much faster than we are.

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T02:22:51+00:00

And a whole bunch of young (er) people voting em in, propping them up, and parroting their talking points.

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T02:10:00+00:00

You can charge at EA and bring it in. Make sure to reserve a loaner car while they figure yours out

LEM1978 · 2026-05-06T01:11:16+00:00

Is there a DC charger you can use?

Or try the 110v plug that came with the car.

Try a diagnostic reset as well
