Infrastructure is just behind the curve in various parts of the world. I don’t own a house with a garage so I have no good way of charging at night. I have a dedicated parking spot as my neighbors do but who knows what it would cost to get power and an outdoor charger installed

The price for an EV in the US is absurd(the price of autos in general is absurd). Tesla is 100% not making a cheap EV to maintain their profit margins to keep stock price high. Go look at the average gross profit margin of an auto maker, Tesla is 2-3x that.
