i drive a 1st gen Yaris that is literally older than me. not the best for climate change, but it was 1500€ and uses less than 6L/100km. super cheap to drive. if an electric car was available at that price, and had a possibility of driving 10-20 more years, i would’ve bought it on the spot.

True, but they did have to be new at some point. Presumably you might like to buy a used EV one day.

Isn’t the whole point of an EV that they don’t have ICEs?

If I’ve got my heart set on a steak for dinner tonight, the fact that sausages are much cheaper isn’t really relevant information.

Then don’t complain that the steak is too expensive and eat your damn sausage.

Honestly this is the first time on Lemmy I’ve felt like I was on reddit with such stupid argument logic.
