I was quoted 1200 for just the install, my electrical box is at one of my house and it had to go through a room into my garage corner (about 20 feet). Was shocked, but apparently the cabling is really expensive. Luckily had someone that did it for a living and installed for free. So much better then using the normal wall outlet though
240v dedicated taps don’t come cheap. Having two 240v taps installed this morning, will cost about $1300. That’s without a proprietary charger. I decided to just use standard 240v chargers for our Mach-E. It’s slower than the proprietary Ford charger, but not by much.

The same electric systems that just got recalled?

Im not sure what your point is here. Don’t get an EV because they (and all other new cars) have privacy issues?
Hyundai is supposedly gathering information about their customers and giving it to the cops.
Oh and they’re giving out 30 year old anti theft devices because their cars from a certain period don’t have
