I dont even know who its going to win over at all? If you can afford this range in the first place, that 15k is a blip.

My wallet tells me it’s going to take more than dropping the price of a $150,000 car to a mere 135 grand to win me over.
If family, functionality, and 4 doors are requirements along with speed, I think a Polestar Engineered V60 T8 is a good fit since they already have a Porsche. Yeah, it doesn’t have 8 cylinders but it has YELLOW freaking seatbelts and still rips. It’s priced below $120k and cool people in the know will drool when they…
They really ZoomZoom and zippy away like a Mazda, 6.3s the ioniq5 N mod gets 3.5 on the quarter m track..waiting for N 6 model here, more more aerodynamic t he the 5 or other Teslas for that matter E r, THX ZoomZoomy2k ! I'm happy owner only blk
I agree as an I-6 owner, I've rented it 6x
There are multiple choices at $25K with under 30K miles in the DFW area.
Yeah I’m curious about what the pricing indicates. I’d be interested in a 2-3 year old EV at that price, but the huge price drop doesn’t inspire confidence. But maybe it’s something to jump on now before people grab these cheap ones up and the used price starts to stabilize?
One almost has to wonder if it’s simply a reflection of staggering markups applied to these in the first place.
Same applies to the Polestar2, which in an infinitely better looking car in every way.
Its a hell of a deal.
The BMW purple is just gorgeous in person.
Not to mention that EV battery recycling is gaining traction. This will result in a tremendous reduction in emissions needed for battery minerals.
2nd gear: The way this administration simply betrayed one of our greatest allies, I can’t imagine Tesla ever sells another car in Canada.
emissions are also being reduced in the mining side too. there’s right now a huge push to go electric for large mining equipment as well (mainly for underground mining) because one of the biggest expenses for a mine is getting fresh air supply down to the depths of the mine in order to keep engines running.
Right? I think they buried the lede with that article title. 25,000 makes it sound like kind of a long time, but 2 years? That’s nothing.
Im a dork and track my miles (sometimes shows me when my tires have started getting a bit low as the average will drop).
The 19t/26t assessment at the beginning of the article seems a bit biased, because it assumes a 500gCO2/kWh electricity (Midwest value, worse than most EU countries and 10 times more than here in France) and a relative short lifetime (100k miles), and a very optimistic assessment of the ICE’s emissions (better count…
There are benefits to an EV outside of the idea (and facts) about being a greener option. Its these points that detractors love to ignore. But I am noticing that people are starting to come around on EVs and that is interesting to watch.
I would be curious how manufacturers like BMW that have over a decade of experience utilizing renewable energy and utilizing production waste for new car production (ie the i3 seats were made from from post manufacturing waste and the iX uses over 120 lbs of recycled plastics for interior and body components) stack up…
The CEO of SpaceX, Tesla, Twitter, and Neuralink now has significant influence over the very government entities that regulate or contract with his businesses. Has a bigger conflict of interest ever existed?
