The main reason EV is popular now is because of Tesla as adult toy. As Tesla stock prices getting hammered (and tanking olin coming recession), EVs popularity overall will take a dip. EVs are generally front-loaded cost. As long as you get a new car and totally ignore any of those batteries swap and disposal. EVs is very cheap. Once you considered entire cost, then ordinary cars (or even non-lemon used cars especially from Toyotas) aren't that bad.
