    the USA market EV is a luxury market. EV drivers are primarily paying 50K+ or more for these cars as a status symbol. Your average school teacher can’t afford an EV, and is buying a used hybrid/ICE car.

    Brand new Nissan Leaf is under $30K. Used lightly under $14K for a 2021 model. The sweet spot with EVs is used because idiots think they will explode in 3 years. The beauty of ignorance is a cheap alternative for those who read.

    This thread thinks EVs are Teslas. You can buy facial tissues for a lot less than Kleenex.
