EV will still be priced at more than $15k w/o battery just for expected
amenities and since I would never buy a new car anyway, I can see why
there is no market for a pure EV in that range for several more years.
Though eventually, there will be a HUGE range and mix of EV's. The
shortest is the commuter that uses her EV to drive from home to the
park-&-ride. 10mi round trip per day. - Bob
I've had my imiev only a couple of months, but I'm very pleased with
it. Other than the 60 miles of range. Cost new was about $26k,
including tax, title, and license. The state incentive is $2.5k and the
income tax credit is $7.5k. So, I expect the total cost to be about $16k.
I'm about 6'4" and the interior is comfortable. It is fast enough for
me. Especially with the rear seats folded, it has very generous cargo
space.
