Didn't want to say it was a bad idea, just that EV have to become viable for the general population and that is currently not the case because of the higher price. Very high taxes on fuel would also incentivize people to buy EV.
I don't use a car much that is why I have a used one for ~2500$. I know a mechanic for cheap repairs, I need it occasionally to reach friends and family and public transport is not an option since time has become so valuable and it doesn't work for emergencies.
I would not want to spend 20,000$ on a car because it would just be parked most of the time. Especially among younger people I see this very often. It will be interesting to see EVs hit used markets. My company leases cars for 50,000$ without thinking twice and some people just love cars that much, but that isn't realistic for the vast majority of people.
Currently used EV can cost 25,000$. Not viable for the mass market.
