I bought a Soul EV about 5 years ago. From a commuting perspective, honestly by faaaar the best vehicle I've ever owned. My children, who are 11, can't stand it when they have to ride the diesel school buses, or even be near a gas car that is running. I expect they will never own an ICE car, and perhaps never even drive one.
On the other hand, I took the EV on the track once when my 914 started leaking oil. It was soooo boring. But what percentage of people track their cars? We had a Pontiac Wave for about 15 years. Bought it brand new for $15k, and spent about $30k on gas over it's lifetime. Over an equivalent 15 year period, my Soul EV will end up being cheaper, even though it cost twice as much to buy. Edit: I am rural, and it's gets to be -20C around here on occasion. You can have the EV in a garage, set the car's preheating and it's all ready to go. Best thing ever. |
