When you’re still having to pay to charge, even $30 a pop, that isn’t much incentive to switch to an EV.

Was just with a friend who has the bass model model 3 this past weekend, unless you’re at a supercharger I was very surprised how long the 240V in-home charger takes to charge etc.

I know there are cheaper EV’s but if a base model 3 is 50k. It’s 100% the wrong financial move to buy that over a 25,000 civic or Corolla as a “money saving” venture. I understand for the most part it’s not people stretching their budget who were originally looking at a 25,000 vehicle going to a 50,0000 vehicle rather it’s people looking at a 50k vehicle opting for an eV. However it reduces the overall incentive to go full EV if you’re paying to charge all the time
