Critically, the V8 and I6 were designed to be interchangeable size wise. If you can fit the I6 in the engine bay, the V8 fits too.
You almost have to feel bad for the automakers for all the money they wasted to have their electric cars flop so hard. They're gonna take some pretty massive losses over the next few years, it's gonna be a rough time for the auto industry.

Also selling EV cars via the dealer paradigm is antithetical to dealer survival since they make a large amount of their profits off servicing vehicles. They aren't dumb. There will be much less routine maintenance to do on EVs. Dealers would be crazy on a long-term basis to promote EVs.
