I mean - adding an outlet for electric cars is probably $100-200 in labor+parts when constructing a new home. It's trivial to add when everything is already exposed.
And, if you're in CA and buying a new home -> you can afford a Tesla or some other electric car. Alternatively - you have a 40-amp outlet. Run a washer/dryer there instead or maybe a table saw or something? The outlet will still be useful for things beyond a car.
The new ruling on requiring solar on new homes is actually more problematic in terms of cost. https://fortune.com/2018/12/06/california-solar-panels-new-homes/ https://fortune.com/2018/12/06/california-solar-panels-new-h...
