New cars in general are a luxury. Lots of people rely on their 2k beater to get to work, shop for groceries and drop off kids at school.

Should they be priced out of the economy completely?

Heck I make six figures and drive a $5000 Honda from 2010. I just can't justify spending so much money on a. electric car.

That's fine. Someone has to drive that vehicle to amortize the carbon costs of production, right??
