Honestly I think these numbers aren’t quite as bad as they are made out to be.
How many people are trading in or selling their cars to buy a new one? How many are going EV? Our payments are close to this number for our EV6, but I was able to get a ridiculous amount for a 2010 Honda Accord Coupe from Carvana and I timed it so the payments for our other car stopped when we bought the EV. So all in all when you add that plus the savings of no longer getting gas, it wasn’t a bad financial decision at all. Plus this car will easily last far over a decade!
