I don't mind not owning cheaper things but when it comes to very high value purchases i.e. houses, cars etc, I'm not going to put capital in up front or leverage debt unless I actually own all rights to them. I don't mind renting them but the value proposition has to be decent and it's not for any EVs at the moment for my personal circumstances. It would be silly for almost everyone I know to invest in one as well and they only end up realistically as status purchases. When my current, modest petrol vehicle becomes to cost inefficient to look after, I'm not going to bother getting another one. I live in a major city with good public transport so will leverage that, ride my bike and hire a car if I need one.
