    The cheapest car to drive will almost always be the one you already have. When you need a new car, the used market is actually doing pretty decent. Used EVs can be about as cheap as a basic ICE vehicle now. 1 30-second google search and I found a used EV with 61k miles for $6k, and another for $4k.

    Long-term, EVs can also be much cheaper to run, so it actually makes financial sense to make your next vehicle an EV.
