Genesis Is doing that with their electrified versions of everything except GV60 which is EV entirely. The G80 EV loses the rear seat middle hump and has a flat floor. (except on the ultra-lux models with a center console.)

I actually dig this from a versatility perspective (obvious nod to the mid-gate like feature) while having such a literal small footprint. That front end will have to be altered due to having absolutely no front end protection before the front wheels. Aside from that, the design actually works. Lots of potential here if they can get the obvious bugs and kinks worked out but a great concept nonetheless. That price is a little steep too, I might add.

Nonsense! Manufacturers can swap out the entire floor pan. And people tend to prefer traditional looking cars, regardless of how they are powered. The weird looking EVs don’t sell well the traditional looking EVs sell great. The Model-3 may have the design language of a bar of Zest, but it is still essentially a 3 box sedan. The GV60 and Bolt sell in spite of their looks but generally they are just pod cars no matter how much the manufacturers try and tell us they are crossovers.
