This is great and all, but any EV with a decent charge is expensive as shit. I’d rather just have decent public transit.

You can buy an older BMW i3 for $12-15k with a 70-100 mile range. No you're not driving cross country with it, but you can certainly putt around town with one.

Of course the i3 is ugly as sin and I would never own one. But I have friends that have two and love them. I'm keeping an eye on the used EV market and waiting until the right style/price point to get one that has a 100 mile range to get around town.

Look at the MG4, 200 mile range and very competitively priced.
