Don't buy new. The second hand market for EVs is great. 3-4 year old cars with over 200 miles range for ยฃ12-15k, and lots of them.

    Maybe in UK?

    There is a second hand market where I live (Czech rep), but it's still not cheap. We're traditionally a country where others' used car end up. Same with EVs, but re-sellers ask a premium for this "brand new technology" and yada yada yada... The cheapest of Swasticar model 3 (first production year 2019, with over 200k km, smaller battery) I could find is over ยฃ15k. Kia EV6 similarly aged and (ab)used? Hand over well over ยฃ20k...
