But Tesla's cars are exactly this - they are largely gas sedans that look normal and are electric.
People don't want some dorky looking electric car like Volkswagen's or BMW's. They want a normal car that's electric.

Since the current EV market is still very small, manufacturers target the most popular body style to maximize their sales. That is currently an SUV/CUV in the US and in many markets. It is to be hoped that, once the EV market gets large enough, there will be room for different body styles such as sedans or smaller hatches. Personally, I would prefer something closer to the ID.3 but that is not something I expect to see in the US any time soon.
Tesla might as well come out with a minivan and a wagon, they could probably make people think they were cool.
