I think Teslas in particular are hard to justify purely financially. They’re not alone; Lucids, Rivians, some VWs fit in that category as well. Of course there are many other reasons to choose those cars but it’s not really to “save” money necessarily. They’re still cool cars with a lot to like. It just ends up being pretty close to a wash at the end of the day. With access to Tesla’s charging network, that makes literally all other cheaper EVs significantly more appealing for me. I love the convenience of EVs personally and don’t see myself switching back to gas regardless but hybrids lately have been looking more attractive given the price of electricity in CA lately. Having a full solar system already, there’s not a lot I can do to ease the pressure.
