Roadster 2+2

$8,995 – $9,695

Tara's 4-seat 2+2 LSV and the value end of the field: a 48V/160Ah lithium pack, a 6.3 kW AC motor, four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes, and a 9-inch CarPlay touchscreen, listing around $8,995–$9,695. Tara Electric Vehicles Corp (Orlando, FL) is an NHTSA-registered Low-Speed Vehicle maker, but street-legal is an optional NEV package — order the LSV setup. One caveat to confirm before buying: Tara's own US page lists a 19 mph top speed while dealers and the factory market 25 mph.
