The price difference needs to include owning a house vs. renting an apartment.
- natch 4y agoWe charged two Teslas at an apartment for years, no problems. Using a single 110 outlet (shared, one car at a time). In the occasional road trips we also used superchargers. If it can work for two cars surely it can work for one car. You do have to choose an apartment where your outlet is close enough to the parking, obviously.
- timbit42 4y agoMake an offer to your landlord to pay for a charger installation for your parking spot. Eventually EVs will be so common that landlords will be falling over themselves to get chargers installed so they aren't pariahs.
- erik_seaberg 4y agoI don’t think renters are going to start buying EVs until a large majority of rentals have reserved charging and parking somewhere nearby. If landlords wait to see demand, it won’t appear. Replacing street parking is going to be a bigger problem.
