    Yes, well, things haven’t gotten cheaper over the years… that’s the way things generally tend to work. And that sounds like a much lower quality car. Average new car price in the US is ~$40k.

    You have to account for the cost of ownership in that purchase price. But it sounds like you may need to investigate your local EV incentives.

    I’m ready for a Toyota Corolla EV or similar for a much lower price, but Japan seems to be on a warpath against EVs.

      It’s way more practical than a Tesla. Whatever, the Berlingo model now starts at 39.000€ (EV only). That’s twice the price I bought mine. My salary has not doubled in 10 years.
