I just got a 2023 id.4 for 20k, and I charge off the grid.
Right.... I drive a 20 year old Toyota Yaris that gets 40mpg, and i drive like 30 miles a week max, more like 15. It cost me $5,000 3 years ago and i pray every day it last another 3 years. Theres absolutely no cost savings for me dropping $20k on an EV to save 50-75 gallons of gas a year. I dropped $10-12,000 on solar to save $4,000 a year on power and heating. One of these is a good use of money one of them is virtue signaling...
Whatever makes you feel better
I got a 2007 A6 Allroad Quattro for 1.8k. Let me know when I can get an EV for that price, with highway cruising range (I get about 1000 km on a tank but I'd find 400-500 acceptable on an EV).
So far the closest and most tempting are old Tesla Model S, which I could get for 15k, but I'm not a fan of touchscreens, I prefer a proper interior. And not sure I should give money to someone who bought a car off Elon Musk and will likely do it again. Runner up is Jaguar I Pace which is super cheap because... Jaguar decided to pretend its old lineup doesn't exist and is discontinuing parts production.
Even then, being able to charge at home is incredibly privileged. Not everyone lives in a single-family home. I do, but if I didn't, charging would cost as much as fuel before the Iran war.
Just because you can't do it doesn't make it a bad decision
