If you are looking for an electric vehicle that is rival for eeVee in same price category, I would say that
City El is something you can compare to. It has about same top speed, simple structure and easy to maintain.
Also eeVee´s battery box design give you great possibility to make battery conversion when the time comes (there is lots of room for LiFePo-batteries and thermal insulation).

You both are right. If you are going to buy an electric car, this vehicle can not compete with normal size cars.
But if you are a 16 years old with A1 driving-licence and want to drive an enclosed vehicle year around; your choises are very limited.
In my opinion the nearest competitor for eeVee is a bigger version of Piaggio Ape (vehicle class L5e) and it is up to you which one you like.

I found something funny in driving licence regulations: you are allowed to drive 200 cc Ape (L5e class) but not 50 cc Ape (L2e class) with A1 driving licence .

Klasse A1 gir førerrettighet også for trehjuls motorsykkel med effekt på høyst 15 kW.
Minstealder for klasse A1 er 16 år.

L5e kjøretøy = trehjuls motorsykkel

It looks like Daewoo Matiz, but under body panels there is nothing common. This is light electric vehicle, that is designed for modest speed 65-70 km/h and due to three-wheel structure it has to have different under body. Some parts for exampel brake discs, brake calibers, brake pads and partly drive shafts are same that have been used previously in cars such as Suzuki Alto and Honda Civic.

Three-wheel electric car, vehicle class L5e can be driven with motor-cycle driving license (16 year old person) and also with an ordinary car driving license.
