Same (and it is a thing where I’m at, it just needs to be used+imported). But also I don’t really want to drive, and I do not afford such a thing (both in terms of need and money).
I did buy a small+cheap+geared ebike (45 pounds, 20" wheels) and it’s pretty great. Would be nice to be lighter, but that’s a cost thing. Somewhat smaller perhaps too (not that I’ve tried it), though that would probably require a custom design or perhaps an normal bike (I am not sure how a niche smaller bike would compare to what I have now in terms of riding effort/experience and cost especially without a good-deal local used or clones on sale).
Though bicycling also has its limits/caveats where I’m at (also for me personally, so I don’t have a standard commute) but the specific utility (especially due to a nearby trail) that is there in different forms makes it worth it (health being a big one, 1-way trips, I even fetched water 12L at a time when the pump was out).
