Master BaiterMass adoption of EVs will require:[list=1][*]400 miles of legitimate range at 80 MPH at 100°F with the AC on, or at -10°F with the cabin heated to 72°F. [/*][*]Wide availability of 500+ kW fast chargers that are working and available even on busy holidays, along interstates where people drive on road trips. [/*][*]Wide availability of level 2 chargers at apartments and on-street in urban settings where people park on the street. [/*][*]Comparable purchase price to ICE vehicle. [/*][/list=1]

WolfwagenNO. Im not looking to own an EV until:1. Charge times from 25% - 100% are equal to what it takes to fill up an ICE vehicle and 2. until the USA proves we have enough power supply so as not to risk the entire grid going down when millions of people come home from work and plug their vehicles in the middle of a heat wave with feel-like temps over 100.
GrgThese days, it is not only EVs that could be more affordable. All cars are becoming less affordable.When you look at the complexity of ICE cars vs EVs, you cannot help. but wonder if affordability will flip to EVs?

Love that blue color.
Does anyone know if the shape of that driver's seat indicates a center seat in the front? A 6 passenger subcompact in Canada would be wicked!
