Re: Electric car for only the VERY richest of the rich
That's always been my gripe about electric cars -- not the range, but the fact that I can't afford one and will probably NEVER be able to afford one. why the heck can't someone invent an EV in the $17-$22k range? You'd think it'd be cheaper than designing a car with an ICE because it'd have a lot fewer moving parts. Everything I've seen in EV is $85k and up (usually WAY UP).
My domestic partner would LOVE to drive an EV, since he only drives 15 miles to/from work, and I do most of the other driving (via my HCH).
