I was hoping Volvo would make something like this, but I don't know what they are doing now and realized they costs way too much ...

Volvo acquired Polestar and they have some good EVs, but nothing small or cheap yet. Small, cheap and funky - that's what Fiat is doing right now.

I might consider fiat now that I don't have to worry about how small the engine bay is.

With the new 500 estimated to start around $35k in the US, Fiat lost "cheap". Super uncompetitive at that price though, we'll see what happens.

Can get a nearly new Polestar 2 for that. The $650/mo insurance bill killed that idea for me though.
