Volvo is bringing a 36k one to market this summer. While that’s still very expensive it’s less expensive than the average of 50k (45k with rebates) you see from domestic manufacturers.
If they manage to dodge the inevitable court case for selling at a loss and make it stick we should see more stuff like the Chevy Bolt.
There’s a cheat code out there right now: Toyota bz4x. At full price, they’re not a very good option. There’s plenty with better range and charge time. They also fucked up some of the features, like one pedal driving.
However, first year depreciation is hitting them hard, and then they look much better. So much off that the downsides can be overlooked.
TBF there was a VW Electric Car recall, clearly their models had some liabilities. Hopefully they continue to keep their word and improve to become the top EV brand in the next few years.
Very true. VW had a really cheap one, and it sold out immediately. Still removed it for no reason.

They seem like it, saw a video where it beat BMW and Mercedes in efficiency and fast charging.
But to be fair I hate cars like hell. It would be completely fine to have 5% of the cars on our roads, and still be fossile
Yeah, and road expansion needs to stop as well. It’s already ridiculous in the USA, it makes communities less walkable.
