I wasn’t saying it is, but it can make a difference.
If you’re in the price point anyway, I think an EV is a no brainer. Why get a $50k BMW over a $50k EV? If you’re shopping for a $15k or less car, then yeah, it’s not easy to justify.
But used Model 3’s are going for $30k now, and you can get a $4k tax credit on top of that. Saving an additional $140/mo makes it competitive with a lot of mid priced cars.
Because a $50k BMW is going to be much better equipped than a $50k EV. That comparison isn’t a good one to make, because a $50k EV right now would be equipment equivalent for a $30-40k ICE vehicle.
Again the economics aren’t there. A $30k used Model 3 with its creaking suspension and beaten interior would need to compete against a $26k new hybrid like the Prius LE. That prius is brand new, massively cheaper to repair and maintain, and will easily last you 10-12 years. Making that $140 a month an upside down prospect, given the fuel efficiency of the Prius.
