That's.. that's not a car. Don't get me wrong I like that thing a lot! But it's not a fair comparison, even Citroen calls it a 'light quadricycle' or something like that, and I would say 8k€ is a bit expensive for a comfy electrical scooter you need a parking spot for.
Well, look, I don't know what the French car market is like, but Dacia Sandera starts from €16k here in the UK (£13,795), so I have no clue which car you can buy for €10k. Ami is pretty much the only choice and it's fully electric, even if it's a quad bike. Also the new Dacia Spring EV is just £1k more expensive than Sandera. So yeah, no excuse to drive an ICE car.
I'm not French, nor I live there, either, but a friend of mine bought a Hyundai i30 like 1-2 months ago under 12k€. There are plenty of second hand cars under 10k. And I would say there are some excuses for ICE cars yet, for example virtually everybody in my country lives in an apartment, so unless charging stations are set up every 5 meters on all sidewalks (and in my neighborhood sidewalks are VERY narrow, some of them barely half a meter) most people are just bound to our polluting metal monsters.
Why are comparing new cars to use cars?
I think it's fairer to compare new cars to used cars than new cars to new not-cars like the ami. Also I missed the part on the thread where it was specified anything about the car being brand new.
No, there's no point comparing prices of new cars to old cars.
