Getting an EV - buy new, buy used or lease?

[Anonymous]

We LOVE our Tesla Y and it was a great deal, but one thing that surprised me was that our car insurance TRIPLED. So just make sure to factor that into your all-in price. Subaru and a volvo was $192 a month, Subaru and a tasla is now $347.

I agree with 08:12. Look for a Bolt. 2022 models qualify for the $4k credit if you qualify.

ioniq 5 sel 2025 was this month is $209 a month with a $4k due at signing for 36 months. That is a very good deal. You can decrease what is due at signing by increasing your monthly. Hyundai is really making a push to be a player in the EV market with their new plant in GA coming on line.
Volvo 2023 has some low miles good deals. Have to shop around but there are deals to be had.

Question is how much do you drive in a week, suv vs car, do you live in the city, how are you going to use the car, what you like, etc. You want a home charger. If you live in the city a smaller car is nice just for parking etc.

Again used 2023 are out there and the 2025 are coming out. The 2025’s have longer range 335-400 plus per charge on the top end models. You could see some deals on the 2024 soon.

Let us know what you get!
