Get a Tesla. They just reduced their prices and they now qualify for the $7,500 EV credit. It’s literally the cheapest time to get one before it goes back up in march

I'm not anti-Tesla or anti-Elon but I am anti-paying an extra $20k for a car.

The qaulity control on Teslas is shit anyway. Imagine dropping $50k on a new car and it starts rattling or squeaking after a year.

It holds better value, has a better charging infrastructure, and the difference is about 10k. It was just a suggestion; but totally understand. Best of luck with the search!

Politics aside, it’s definitely a better EV for the value

Politics aside the company's stock has plummeted this past year and keeps promising features that they don't (and in some cases seemingly can't) deliver on. Tesla price is also only as high as it is because of the luxury aspect that it markets to. Now with companies like Porche, Mercedes, Lexus, ect have been ramping up their EV production I don't see Tesla having much holding power.

I’m speaking from experience. I had a Chevy bolt and switched to a Tesla. The upgrade was night and day.

Your literally talking to an investment banker. Tesla is known as a TECH car not luxury. Tesla is worth more than all of those ICE brand cars for a reason. The charging infrastructure is unmatched and is exclusive to the brand. Also you have absolute pricing which mean some sleazy car salesman won’t get you for 10-20%more than MSRP.

I literally don’t understand all the hate, if you buy another car you literally funneling money to another rich billionaire pocket; don’t want to ruin the surprise but look at who owns the car brand you just mentioned. And they are in the same side politically

You get that credit with the Bolt too. By all means get a Tesla if you want to run over children and set yourself on fire.

Teslas look tired. The design hasn't been updated in a decade.
