[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want an EV for green reasons but there are no EVs out right now that appeal to me at all. The PP who mentioned Subaru is right in line with me: I want a safe reliable crossover SUV like I have now, but EV. The Leaf and Bolt are too small; Tesla is too weird and has concerning safety issues. I don't want a sports car, or a statement car:[b] I want a workhorse family car.[/b] I'm going to wait it out with my battered, paid-off ICE car. Hopefully the offerings will improve.[/quote] Don't dismiss Tesla so fast. The Model Y is exactly what you describe. We had an X but I hated the falcon doors, traded it for a Y which is just a bit smaller. I absolutely love it. We also have a 3 and love that too. The best cars ever. [/quote] Teslas have just so much plastic - if you want a luxury electric car, the Tesla isn't it, even though the pricing is entry level luxury. I don't want to be looking at the center console to see how fast I'm going. There also are some questionable safety aspects (can you get out of the backseat of your Y if you lose power in an accident?)[/quote] Yes, of course you can get out without power. An you're not staring at the center console for speed, it's at the upper left of the screen, which is well within your peripheral vision. It takes you about five minutes to get used to. [/quote]
