The Ami starts for substantially more than that.

And even then, it's not legally classified as a car. It has virtually no crash safety, a top speed of 28mph assuming no incline, and a real world range of 40 miles.

Don't get me wrong, I like the Ami, but it's a scooter alternative more than a car alternative.
