I’ll look into these. I live in the US suburbs on a bit of a budget, and there’s a sweet spot for pricing that IMO hasn’t quite happened yet with most EV. I think the number for me is $25k for a new base model with average range. I hope my next car will be an EV, but we’ll see.

With tax subsidies, many models are in that range now.

if you don't have the income or the desire to take advantage of the tax subsidies yourself, you can still get them through very generous leasing programs that most manufacturers are offering for electric vehicles.

Heh Model 3 lease starts at $1336 NZD/month and is for businesses only (not Tesla direct tho). Completely out of reach with reality.

Don't forget to consider TCO and charge vs gasoline.
