    Buying new cars is stupid. You wasted several thousand just by driving it out of the dealership. Let someone else do that and buy it a year later with low milage and ten grand off.

    And the Nissan leaf is an absolute joy to drive.

      I buy used cars exclusively. A used EV that retails under $20k new will be very affordable used.

      My point isn’t that used cars don’t exist under $20k, my point is that sodium ion batteries are supposed to be way cheaper than lithium ion batteries, and they’re more than sufficient for a commuter. I want those available where I live.
