I love everyone in this thread who is talking about how expensive EVs are while ignoring they can buy a cheap 15 year old ice car and save thousands 🤣🤣🤣
You can want what you want. Doesn’t mean it’s a smart or only choice. You are going to spend more money in most cases and you won’t make up the money for at least 6 or 7 years (at least in the states) unless you drive a ton.
i drive a 1st gen Yaris that is literally older than me. not the best for climate change, but it was 1500€ and uses less than 6L/100km. super cheap to drive. if an electric car was available at that price, and had a possibility of driving 10-20 more years, i would’ve bought it on the spot.

Isn’t the whole point of an EV that they don’t have ICEs?
If I’ve got my heart set on a steak for dinner tonight, the fact that sausages are much cheaper isn’t really relevant information.
Honestly this is the first time on Lemmy I’ve felt like I was on reddit with such stupid argument logic.

Then don’t complain that the steak is too expensive and eat your damn sausage.

Lol a used car is far more environmentally conscience than a new EV.
True, but they did have to be new at some point. Presumably you might like to buy a used EV one day.
But how would people cope with shitty lives without buying something new every couple of weeks?
