Mine at 100% charge gets 175 miles of range (don't turn on the climate because that knocks it down to 160 miles), dealer says they are working on a fix. But won't look at the car.

You may want to look at the Hyundai Ioniq 6. Rated for 360 mile range on a 100% charge, and Hyundai's been doing $7,500 cashback to offset the ineligibility for federal credits. And if you're really lucky, your state won't charge sales tax—NJ didn't for mine.

Too bad insurance on this would be another $200

175 miles means nothing! Not even 4 hours drive! Succcc

Will the wheels stay on? Did they 100% fix that issue?

Until they make an EV which fully recharges in 15-20 mins (this is the time taken to refill gas, use the restroom and grab something to munch on while I'm on long trips) I'll be avoiding these for now. As it stands, Toyota's hydrogen engines look more promising.
is it promising though? is the only place you can fuel it in CA and haven't they closed some of the fueling stations recently? don't get me wrong, i'd love to see all competing technologies have a time to shine to truly compare, but only being able to purchase and use within CA kind of makes it difficult.

I have a feeling other EV models that aren't Tesla's are going to start having similar price drops. Not much demand for them and dealers are sitting on too much inventory. We pretty much only use our vehicles for road trips (work from home and bike most places local). A low priced ICE version of this car would be a decent deal in our situation.

This car would be fine as a second or third vehicle as a city/suburban runabout. It has slow charging and sub 200 mile real world range, which would make it a headache for any serious interstate travel, but it would have no issue scooting around town and getting groceries.

That would be especially good if you don't need it daily — you could use slower level 1 charging in your garage (ie the regular home outlet plug). No need to get an appliance (level 2) plug installed.

For $241/m, it's an interesting impulse buy. Just wish the Lexus version would have a fire sale too

Nice lease payment, although range issues are obviously on the radar.

We are currently seeing the tip of the iceberg on upcoming massive price drops across the board, both for EVs and internal combustion cars and trucks. Demand for all has dropped to historic lows because of greedy pricing by manufacturers/dealers combined with high interest rates, tightened lending standards, and upside down trade-ins. Lots are overflowing nationwide, with even some new 2022 models still unsold. When the tipping point is reached in the next 6 months or so, 5 figure discounts off sticker will become the norm as dealers scramble to offload inventory in a buyer's market. Many dealers are facing bankruptcy as we speak unless drastic measures are taken to move cars that are costing them huge amounts in floorplan interest costs. It's time for them to pay the piper for the easy money they made during the pandemic.

Oh and I forgot to mention the underhanded, dishonest tactics and ridiculous add-ons from dealers. All of this combined has made the average car buyer detest the current "dealership experience". I'd love to go buy a new truck, but currently there is no way I'd set foot on a dealership lot with all of the above in mind. They can keep their $80,000 trucks; I'm not interested.

Hydrogen is so expensive now that it' costs $130 to fill for around 300 miles

you couldn't pay me enough to buy an EV. what a colossal failure..and then those that buy solar panels..hahaha I just laugh at them. I'll stick with my 100% gas car and zero solar panel roof.
With you on the EV- disagree with the solar panels. for the same reasons I disagree on a EV . EV are something you use an hour or two a day. A house you use for significantly more. Solar takes up a lot of space; but space on your roof is basically unused. Even if you don't store or grid tie, you can use that electricity to heat/cool/make hot water, so that your house is at your optimal comfort when you get home.

I can only hope for this. Hoping my current daily driver at 245K miles holds out for another year at 30K miles per year.

If this came out 7 years ago, might have been good competition with the bolt, but with all the other unique and much better performing evs in the same price bracket, this this is going to need to be 25k or less for it to sell

In the words of Phil Robertson..."I could be wrong, but I doubt it".

The writing is on the wall, and once it starts it will be a race to the bottom, with the stubborn dealers losing out most. Followed by an influx of affordable cars that the dealers (and manufacturers) have turned their noses up at for the last few years.
