Sell EV’s under $30k and you’ll sellout!

The Bolt? Sorry, they are getting rid of that for a few years. Hell, it took a lot for them to even agree to bring the damn thing back. They were going to kill it despite its popularity.

GM is bringing back the Bolt next year with a new battery design.

It's ridiculous how bad EV prices are. They think 2 years of wages for a sedan with leather seats is reasonable

You can get a base Tesla model 3 for under 30k with the federal incentive right now. Go to the website if you don’t believe me.

People still don’t understand that EVs have a total cost of ownership that saves you 10-20k over the life of the vehicle compared to an ICE vehicle. Now the sticker prices are getting cheaper than ICE vehicles and people still can’t get past the expensive versions from a few years ago.

If you’re waiting for Ford to offer a sub 30k vehicle, you’re going to be waiting a while. They seem to be giving up on trying to get to scale on production and won’t bring costs down on the numbers they’re pumping.

Oh I’m not in the market, and that’s still a lot of money. Thanks for that, because someone will find it useful.

Do they even sell ice’s for that?
