If you care for your can you will not want to leave it in open sun for extended periods, especially when you live in lower latitudes where this car would have more sense. Stuff deteriorates in open sun and high temperature and this applies to batteries. If you are cash strappend and own an EV then the batteries are going to be your focus as keeping them alive for as long as possible is going to largely determine your cost of owning the car. All people I know that can't put their car in a garage will try to find shade. And that's in Poland where sun is never directly above. |

I purchased a car last year and have yet to put on 3,000 miles this year since I started working from home. (And I took a day trip with it).
I live in an apartment with a garage, but I use it for storage and don't mind parking my car outside. (I don't care about leaving my car in the sun and I live in a Southern state where it gets hot)
I'd consider buying something like this if it was a little more mature (Maybe in a future/cheaper Tesla model) simply because I love the idea of leaving my car out so it can stay charged.
We don't all think like you and your neighbors.
