Being an American wanting an electric car must be a nightmare! Not many options, and all of them are too expensive,

Chevy Bolt MSRP is $28,995.

I'm waiting to see if Slate can hit their crazy $24,950 target base price. With a 65kWh battery, that's a pretty great price. That's almost cheaper than buying batteries alone. I'm wondering if it will be able to do home backup power.

Just looked it up, GM claims it has a 65 kWh battery, and 150 kW DC charging rate. That's not bad.
But it's only 1 option. Where in Denmark we have 16 options below $25,000.
