An EV is only regardless of near future battery technology only
a Commuting vehicle for those that travel less than 60km per day
by car which is 70% of the developed world or most of us.

the above link shows a cheap alternative EV
A 2cv weighs 620 with its all alloy 2 cylinder 600cc
quadracycle architecture.

A Datsun 1000 POV ute or sedan 615kg and 650 respectively
A series running gear (wet) aprox.
engine 95kg wet
Exhaust 10-15kg
Radiator 10kg wet
Original battery 12kg
So about 140kg total (5-10kg +/- for fuel tank)
around 490kg.

2cv
Aircooled Engine 50kg (fuel tank +/- 5kg)
620kg - 50 = 570 kg

The Datsun K has 70-80kg less
Therefore 2cv EV final weight 655kg - 570kg = 85kg for EV equipment?

Datsun 1000 490kg + 85kg = around 585kg

That would give the 1000 a good 40klm range

The 2cv maximum speed is 115km/h. At a constant speed of 40km/h range is 57km for 1hr. 24min. Actual range is 20-30km at town use using 10 open-type lead-acid batteries at 12V-28AH = 3360 amps hours

Use lithium pack of 12000amp for 7000aud plus 1000 for controller and charger
then you have a big outlay up front for the batteries but over the years the
longevity will warrant the cost, especially a fuel goes to the 2 dollar mark.
12,000amp hours will quadruple the range of to 80-120km per charge.

Enough for everyday travel plus more but limited to commuting only.
The 1st car can be an A series powered :)
