> Perhaps not applicable to NYC, but isnt it kind of troubling that people who cant afford a luxury vehicle (55-100k) could be put in a position where they have to spend more money (gas) to go fill up out of their way, taxed for being poor, or shut up and take public transit?

Base electric vehicles like the Fiat 500e can be had for ~35k [1], if all you're interested in is commuting without getting wet choose a Twizy for ~10k [2], and if you're fine with whatever and just need something cheap, get a motorcycle for ~5k.

Twizy's doors don't have glass windows, so you will get wet in it. Also, it doesn't have heating (or cooling), so in terms of thermal and rain comfort, it's closer to riding a motorcycle than driving a car.
