@loswa ""I have yet to run into somebody who bought an electric car and goes back to a gas car," he said. "That will tell you what's going to happen in the future.""
That person may not know that the ICE recidivism rate from EV is about 20%.
@#20116 I saw something like that too. Personally after letting several people drive my own BEV, at least 6 of them ended up getting one, & 2 went back to ICE, but that may be temporary:
1 went from an 83-mile 500e to an ICE car because he needed more range but couldn't afford an EV with enough. That may have changed by now, with used Bolts becoming available, & even a used 2017+ eGolf's 51% range increase might be sufficient, especially with the DCFC option.
1 went from an 83-mile eGolf back to ICE due to retiring from a job with chargers to a home which PREVENTS charging (condo rules🙄), but she's STILL very strongly considering a 258-mile DCFC eKona.
Thanks! Aptera's low energy use would greatly reduce the need for each of those 3 steps.
