While I'm an ev supporter, you can't deny these things (with a couple exceptions) depreciate like rocks. My poelstar 2 is not even 2 years old and has halved in value with 10k miles 6 months ago. My previous bmw i3 I purchased used for $15k, down from 50-60k when new. Ask any model s/x owner how they feel about depreciation. Or how about mercedes eqs owners and audi etron gt owners, whose cars went from 110k to 60k in 1 year. >warranty period for "basically zero" dollars Bmw i3, chevy bolt, nissan leaf are all easy to find near 10k. Old model s can be had under 20k. Free? No. 1/2 to 2/3 the price of a new corolla? Definitely.
