A Rivian owner was in a fender bender. The repair bill was $42,000.::The repairs cost over half the starting price for the Rivian EV. The owner said he'd expected it wouldn't be cheap, but it was a "shocking number."

All I want out of an EV is a fully electric 1990s era Single Cab Ford Ranger

Wow that's really cool looking. I thought they were all renders but apparently they had a couple trucks at the 2023 Seoul auto show

There are companies that will convert petrol cars into electric. Last I heard about it, it was a $6-8k cost.
