It's really unfortunate for others that there are still that many hurdles.

My ev is so more agile and makes a lot of fun.

True not cheap and getting the electric right was like 1.5k on top but hey still a ton cheaper than a normal car with speeds anything close to my ev.

I get that there are lot of people who like to drive fun cars, and I have no problem with that (as long as they obey traffic laws and drive safely on public roads), but for me speed, agility, and fun are pretty low on my list of priorities in a car. I would rank practicality, safety, comfort, and affordability well above speed.

For me there aren't any EVs on the market that hit the balance of practicality, comfort, and affordability that I am looking for. I'm still optimistic though that by the time I am ready to replace my current car, there might at least be options worth considering.

I would say my ev is more save than a regular car.

I'm much more agile when I take over another vehicle.

Comfort is for me higher too because I charge directly at home.

Let's see how long it will take for evs to get cheaper. I hope sooner than later.
