As usual the chinese auto makers are using predatory pricing with the advantage of slave labour wages to try to cripple the north american auto industry. I will stick with my gasoline vehicle. I would’t touch an EV, THEY ARE THE DIRTIEST VEHICLES EVER MADE! 3.82 million barrels of oil equivalent energy to make 1 EV battery pack for a tesla.
This bit of truth needs to be spoken much more loudly to the general public. Also the cost of charging them is never really taken into account. If you have your own charger at home, your electric bill would be skyrocketing and your risk for a house fire is exponentially higher.

You may want to break out the calculator on this. At home, and at night, the EV will charge based on your utility costs. If you have solar roof, then it’s essentially “free”
Compare a 250 mile battery with your gas tank. It’s about half the cost of gasoline. It all comes from your bank- do you pay electric company or Exxon?
