Cheaper EVs are coming, but they still aren’t in my price range.

slightly used EVs are cheap as chips in NA. I don't get people who whine about car prices then only buy new cars.

    Did some quick market research and the numbers are in.

    If your only drive in good weather in a city, you can get an EV for about 5 k€. If your country has snow and ice enabled, you’ll need to spend about 12 k€, but that’s still tolerable.

    It’s not that expensive after all. Used to be pretty absurd a few years ago. Next, I’ll just need to figure out how to charge an EV. I’ll probably need to move to a newer building first.
