My wife and I hope to buy an EV here in a year or two before she retires. We plan to keep our present vehicles for those times when an EV just won't get it. A forty mile range per charge would work for us. Most weeks that would be a whole weeks worth of driving. If we drove much more the savings would pay for an ev in just a few years. By the time that a typical loan is paid off.
