If they started shipping a small truck, I bet it would sell. And sell an updated version of the leaf with temperature regulated batteries, fast charging, and a modern charging connector instead of Chademo. A decent delivery van would also add to their bottom line.
Your memory is correct. Just about all car makers had small trucks in the 80s. Mazda even had the B2000 in the early 2000’s (rebadged and resold by Ford as well). Auto manufacturers have just gotten addicted to that sweet brodozer profit margin since then.

They used to have a small truck, or is my memory that bad?

Lol, yea, that’s what I was thinking, 80’s and 90’s.
