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

Just want to remind you the fossil industry you villainize is responsible for supplying all the chemicals, material and rubber used to manufacture your EV. The seat cushions, floor mats, steering wheel, tires, If you wear polyester and other non-synthethics, that is brought to you by the Oi & Gas industry. They will be here forever.

Africans die just to dig up the rare earth materials utilized for your batteries
You are making the critical reasoning error in ignoring *relative volumes* of the materials you mentioned, as in, gas car versus electric car. No one is arguing for zero use of these materials, just a reasonable and/or significant reduction, which is certainly the case with EVs.

Are you ok swapping your brand new battery to a degraded one? No thanks.
You buy the car but always just pay for battery usage if you want to buy with a battery and charge at home or just "lease" the battery and pay for usage. When you do the battery swap you will know the range of the battery they are putting into your car. you don't need to worry about a degraded battery as you can always swap it out.
Each battery when it is being charged would have a full diagnostics done.

Quote from SirMarvinHaggler :
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
However, this 2nd or 3rd car scenario can just as well be done by an old Corolla for $5k or $10k. In other words, purchasing a brand new car for such limited or low usage is likely a mistake.

Quote from jaredalanmitchell :
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.
The other EVs from real manufacturers would be very much superior to the problem-riddled offerings from Tesla.

That said, the EV push has dramatically softened and any timeline, if still viable, has likely tripped. So EV sales are going to be plummeting overall as this year goes on.

There was no green deal passed, what passed into law was the IRA, that wasnt shoved down anyones throats, it only incentivized certain green products because nobody is paying for the envirinmental damage fossil fuels have done. Anyone can still buy gas cars. If you're whining about anything shoved down throats, whine about the taxpayer subsidies that have existed for decades for the fossil fuel industry, including funding the misinformation echo chambers you've been swimming in.
Daddy, where does the electricity come from? What about the batteries? How are those made? /smh

Quote from Atomic2 :
How many road trips do you really go on per year though? I've had an EV daily driver for about 5 years now, and in that time I've taken it on about 8 road trips. While yes, its not ideal on road trips, the inconvenience of having to charge on road trips is GROSSLY overshadowed by the convenience of never having to go to the gas station during the rest of the year. Not to mention the cost savings.

Actually, lets mention the cost savings, because those are so significant, I could have my cake and eat it too. Any time I do a road trip, I can afford to rent a car if I'm that bothered by the inconvenience of charging it during my trip. In fact, thats exactly what I'm doing this weekend for the eclipse since I'll be driving out to a rural area. Not to mention, I'll be renting an SUV instead of a sedan like I have, so there will be added convenience there as well. But my $200 expense to rent the car for my 3 day trip is overshadowed by the ~$3000 a year I save in gas and maintenance. YMMV depending on what cars you're comparing, but for my needs, the car I have saves me that much, probably more even. SO yea, I can live with the annoyance of destination charging once or twice a year, or god forbid, spend a couple hundred on a rental.
What car are you comparing to? IMO the most savings will come from plug in hybrids.

You're referring to Cobalt, of which 60% of it comes from the Congo.
First off: The abuse of laborers in 3rd world countries will exist no matter what we buy. If you care very strongly about that, then lobby for changes in our laws that prohibit selling products from companies that use slave labor. Lets see how far Nestle allows you to get with that effort. (Congo is the world's 7th largest exporter of Cocoa nibs)
But you know what else Congo exports? Besides Cobalt and Cocoa.... its Petroleum. In fact, Petroleum is their largest export product by a considerable margin. 80% of their exports are petroleum products.

So are you really that upset about the poor Africans or are you just virtue signaling where its convenient for your pre-existing life choices?

That's my stance. I can't wait up to an hour to charge a car, and don't feel comfortable going up to 80% w/the mentality that I can finish it out "later"

Nah, I wanna be able to get that car charged up and ready to hit the highway again, as anyone w/kids knows how each minute is PRECIOUS and waiting around at a random ass establishment or a walmart parking lot just ain't what it do.
i have EVs and young kids. kids are fine while charging for the most part. if they're not napping, we chat, read, snack, or get out and stretch our legs. you can spend those PRECIOUS minutes WITH them while you charge.

Seems like I read somewhere that it was 35 cents a KWH or so there, which is crazy. I pay 12-15 cents a KWH. And honestly, I haven't seriously considered an EV purchase, so I've never researched electricity costs per mile. I'd love it if a current EV owner could comment on operating costs.
With the cost of electricity, the fuel costs isn't really a factor because the savings are minimal. If you have solar panels, an EV is great

I have a tesla model S P90D. I drive 18,000 miles a year. It directly replaced a car that did about 17mpg on premium gas (which currently costs $5.14 here). The math I used is vs a car that gets 20mpg on mid grade gas (was generous and called it $4/gallon). So about $3600 per year in gas would be my projected cost. My real cost is $600 extra in electricity per year. So about $3000 per year saved there.

Of course ymmv. This is compared to another performance sedan. If you're cross shopping a Solterra with a forester or something similar, your math will be different.

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.
But the thing is, with cars like these, you never need to go to a gas station. Every single morning when you get up to go to work, your car is 100% full.

Hydrogen was a great concept. I owned the first gen Mirai when fuel was $15/kg (4kg to fill). Now h2 costs around $35/kg so it effectively costs more to drive than my 4runner (17 mpg) without the convenience of 300 mile range and readily available fueling stations. I'd get another hydrogen vehicle in the future if the fuel prices normalize (closer to $10/kg) and incentives are good (I got mine as part of an emp program for like $220/month with $0 drive off), but I'd also keep an ICE vehicle around because you don't want to think about refueling if you're doing a risky trip (200+ miles total in a day). It will be interesting if we do see their h2 combustion engines come to public. The FCEV wasn't it for me.
