Only you can judge your own circumstances but it really seems like fear of difference makes worries loom larger.

Here in the US

  • my Tesla was the most expensive car I ever bought
  • but price had dropped and continues to drop
  • cheaper than the average new car, cheaper than the custom trucks so many neighbors have
  • it was like $120 to buy a full set of adapters and cables to allow me to plugin anywhere to any type of outlet
  • installing a level 2 home charger (if you can) was essentially the same cost as installing a new stove circuit - expensive but quite doable
  • superchargers are all over the place and easy to find. I know people who can’t charge at home just goto the supercharger once a week
  • since I can charge at home, I’ve only used superchargers over 100 miles from home
  • it’s really nice to never have to go to the local gas station: charging my car is like charging my phone, get into the habit and it’s always ready to go. Once people get used to this, they’ll never accept the idea of a technology like hydrogen where you would have to go refuel yet again
  • it’s roomier, more practical than my Subaru
  • it’s faster more powerful than my old Grand Am
  • my local garage services them, or at least inspects them, since I haven’t yet needed service
