Yeahhhhh, it's such a pittance that everything is so big. I saw a Mazda 3 ev I think? And there's a VW golf EV but only in the UK I think, and that's way too much of a hassle
There's the Mazda MX-30 if that's what you mean? But it's yet another SUV.
There are some options now that I think about it, but whether any of them are available in your country is another matter.
Renault Zoe - probably what I'd choose if I wanted something Mazda 2-esque.
Homda E - Really expensive for the limited range. Maybe good deals to be had second hand?
VW ID3 - Golf sized. Possibly your best bet in terms of availability.
Fiat 500e - Or the nutty Abarth 500e with its fake (and very loud) engine noise.
Mini electric - Anything but mini.
MG4 - Very popular in the UK. Cheap, decent range, albeit a little ugly.
In the UK there's also the Vauxhall Corsa E. Might be available elsewhere under the Opel brand?
I think that's about it. It's such a shame that the EV market is still very much dominated by SUVs.
