why do you keep comparing a car with 400 mile range to your ev with 80 mile range, that doesn't even have dc fast charging? Its not even a comparison, obviously you wouldnt drive your car designed for daily commutes, you should be comparing to an Ev actually meant to drive 200+ miles, teslas, mache, taycan etc.

I'm not doing a theoretical comparison, these are cars I can afford and actually own right now.

I can't responsibly afford a tesla, mache or taycan, so not going to compare those.

I can easily afford a sub-20K regular car though and it lets me do 1000+ mile day road trips.
