Specifically, check out GM's BEV3, Hyundai Motors e-GMP, Volkswagen's MEB, and Rivian's truck chassis. VW already has vehicles on the market, and the others are coming soon (starting later this year).
The skateboard architectures you mentioned are coming. And they are ideally suited to a brake and seer by wire use case. Commuters and last mile delivery haulers. They will be the perfect rig to pick me and my family up when we call Uber. Or for FedEx. Just not for enthusiasts.

Nor for anyone who still wants to enjoy “driving”.
