Bolt EUV is $27.5k. Btw the average new vehicle price today is $50k.

Average is sometimes skewed by high outliers when it comes to prices, do we have a statistic on the median price instead?

The average non-luxury new vehicle transaction price is $44,288. This excludes all luxury brands like BMW, Mercedes etc.

New cars are pretty expensive these days. A Toyota Sienna is a $50k car once you put on a few options.

And they seldom keep any in stock that don't have a bunch of options.

I picked them up from actual statistics about new vehicle transactions. Where did you get your facts from? Your own ass?

For the month of October, a month in which luxury sales accounted for almost 20% of all sales. Seems a bit disproportionate.

Also , it seems like currently there is an over representation of trucks being purchased which add expense (business right off?)

The Honda Civic price 2022 in October 2022 ranges from 23-29k

Toyota Corolla starts at less than 23k

Of the most popular vehicles sold 2022 , the vast majority are truck / suv / Tesla.

But yes the fact remains the average new car price for October 2022 is close to 50k

It's been over $48k for the entire year, it was over $47k last year.

Nah, Americans just love big unnecessary trucks whilst complaining about gas prices. 🤷‍♂️

Anyways my point is $27.5k for a small electric SUV isn't high, especially since there are federal and state rebates.
