Why? Almost all two seater vehicles sold in the US are sports cars and trucks for a reason. The demand for two seat subcompacts is very low and previous attempts to sell them have been unsuccessful. The Smart car was available in both ICE and EV models and still failed despite trying for over a decade, and that had the advantage of a smaller parking footprint than the EV1. The Scion IQ was similarly unsuccessful.

Despite being a two seater the EV1 is not that small, it's a fraction longer than the Chevy Bolt. I can't see any reason the EV1 form factor would sell today.
