The used EV market is what's really preventing lower-income adoption. The insanity of the secondhand prices over the pandemic is only now beginning to break. I'm seeing polestar 2 models with reasonable miles in the high 20's. That's an enormous discount off the sticker. Tesla has also seen serious price drops.
