Woof. They drive really well, but the market just isn't ready for a $60K+ fast car.

Those are all inaccurate if you actually look at the source site.

You're using a lot of weasel words for somebody who called me the lazy writer :)

What percent are accurate, do you reckon? Should I update my headline to show multiple EV Chargers for sale at less than 50% of their MSRP, or just the one?

When you say "Electric chargers" you give the impression that all, or even a majority, are for sale at that price. When in reality it's 1 or 2 in the entire nation.

Maybe try "Charger EVs for sale in the 30s and below", or similar.

E: looks like you got the same feedback on Reddit.

You seem to be misunderstanding the difference between MSRP and sales price.

MSRP is centrally or nationally set. Sales price is locally set.

Re-read the headline, you would have to misread what I actually wrote to get the understanding that you got out of it.

I understand perfectly but I don't know what any of that has to do with this conversation. MSRP is in the $70s, which no one is talking about.
