The lack of CarPlay/Android Auto makes Tesla a non-starter
I honestly don't care about that. For me, it's price, both for purchase and if I ever need to replace the battery pack.
Used Bolts and Leafs are right in the price range I'm looking at, and I only want it for a commuter, so I don't need a ton of range or a vast charging network. I imagine a lot of other consumers feel similarly.
Imagine a $5-10k commuter vehicle with little/no fuel cost. You could have another vehicle for longer range trips if you need to.
Yup. I'm considering getting an ebike, but that's not going to be pleasant in the winter. I honestly don't need much, I just need to get to work and back, and maybe grab a few groceries on the way.
