I don’t think it is really that people in the US are ‘hesitant’. They are being actively discouraged by the fascists in power, and there is a ton of oil money spreading propaganda and disrupting proper infrastructure development. Also the most affordable EVs arent being sold in thr US because of corruption, xenophobia, protectionism, etc. If the average person was in a position where they could purchase an affordable EV and have the infrastructure most other developed countries have they would leap at the chance.
Yeah, the whole dealer system needs to just be eliminated. It doesn’t do anything beneficial. Just adds cost and complexity with the only purpose bring to enrich societal parasites.
Right, we don’t have good options for anyone but rich people. The used car market was not too terrible last time I looked at least.
We need some basic EVs like a Toyota Camry or Ford Ranger style without all the extra bullshit. We don’t need screens and luxury data mining BS everywhere. Just a good car that works well, running on electric motors.

There are 8 EVs for sale right now between $29K and $38K.
I got mine for under $20, and lower end models go for $12 off-lease
I.e. every season of Landman.
