> its always been possible to make a small electric commuter car to drive round at 30mph for short distances but even today there are none like this

Here's one. The Renault Twizy: https://www.renault.co.uk/vehicles/new-vehicles/twizy.html

The e.Go Life only has 100km range in the base model (the e.Go Kart looks pretty fun): https://e-go-mobile.com/en/models/e.go-life/

The Sono Sion has a small battery but plenty of solar panels: https://sonomotors.com/en/sion/

The Honda e is a nice looking city car with only 200km range: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfD67KCFxqI

The electric city car certainly exists. I wouldn't buy one but you can if you want.
