EVs are awesome. I loved the two I had. The only reasons I don't have one now is I hardly drive anymore and am doing construction on my house that makes a truck become useful. If there were an EV truck that wasn't the size of the house I'm building or the cost of the house I'm building, I'd have gotten that. Instead I got the Maverick hybrid.

If you enjoy the luxury of the Benz, then the Model 3 would have been a step down. There are a lot of good EV options in the luxury range, but very few in the low end range. The Volvo XC40 was really fun to drive and pretty comfortable. My friend loved her Porsche Taycan (that might be too high end, not sure). My coworker just got an i4 and really likes it.
