My wifes car, a really nice used 2016 Volvo S60, was $17K, and gets 30-40. Thats about 1/3 the cost of budget EVs.
My first BoltEV was $16.5k used. The second one, new was $20.5k. So I am going to disagree with that statement. There are going to be a lot more options out there in the next year or two.
I had one of the first Gen Bolts. I'm curious how they're holding up. Loved it. I gave that one back after a woman crashed her van into it at Lake Merritt in Oakland.
I'm gonna be the last person to settle on an EV. Batteries have to get way better for me. Sitting at an EV-GO charger at 1am in say, Lodi got old. Not using the heater or the air conditioner because it chugs through the range got old. I got so tired of finding somewhere to plug that joker in. Tons of charging stations in SoCal. I don't know what's up with the Bay Area.
