...people think you’re being a fanboy when you tell people how great living with an EV is. They just can’t imagine it is that much better. It is.
Well, I am sure BEV owners understand. It's easy to be sceptical and very difficult to change such old ways.
That said, I will surely weigh all factors when I consider a purchase when available. First and foremost will be price. I honestly don't care if these things sprint to 60 in half a second. Nobody should be driving like that anyway. And 200 miles or 300 mile range is way down on my priority list. I would not be traveling distance anyway.
That said, my wife will be needing a new lease in about a year when this launches. It makes a perfect second car for her. I will certainly consider it.
BTW, Ford said their plan is to be profitable with this car. Good news, but that suggests price will not be modest. I am expecting about a $50K starting price.
