Kind of ironic that you’re calling people ignorant when you think tens of thousands of dollars is affordable for most folks. A lot of people are struggling even to afford low end used internal combustion engines.

While, $30,000-40,000 might be considered “affordable” by some luckier people, for many, that is not even remotely close to being a financially viable choice The reality for many is that they are completely priced out of being able to buy any new car, never mind an EV.
