I know that decent electric cars will drop in price over time, but I don't know if they'll become in reach. I also am not convinced the secondhand market will be any good in the next decade, batteries have a limited lifespan and will need to be replaced eventually.

You can buy a beater for <1000 pounds which can still work just fine for a few years, I don't see that happening with electric cars.

I don't see a huge price drop before 2027-2028 at least.

EV feel like "luxury" ones because they are new. A VW ID.3 costs like a Mercedes Class E, which can be considered a high standard.
