The Aston Martin RapidE Concept is an all-electric interpretation of the Rapide S four-door sedan, developed in partnership with Williams Advanced Engineering to explore high-performance EV technology. Photographed at the Aston Martin headquarters in Gaydon, England, these images showcase the concept's blue dot-matrix graphics, distinctive RapidE badging with a blue "E," and the Williams electric powertrain unit under the hood.

I would tell you to stay away from both the E Golf and Focus E. They're basically abandonware by their manufacturers. You'd have to go into it with the attitude that any powertrain failure could total it. The Volt 2016+ could be an interesting option as a commuter because they're dirt cheap

Then a part of me just says save up and wait a couple years for a new Scout. They're big enough to replace the Navigator, they're all electric (I have no interest in the range extended ICE hybrid version), and they look freakin cool.

My only issue with the Bolt is... have you looked at them? I'd consider a Leaf if I didn't care at all what it looked like. The Bolt isn't completely out of the running, but I'm not sure if I can get over how it looks.

I'd need 20k+ miles/year of a lease now that I've driving to work and not taking a bus. ID4 does nothing for me. My goal is for the EV to pay for itself by being less than I'm spending in gas per month. I don't know what a lease for 20k miles and needs to be like $200-250/month payment is. Anything more than that and it doesn't really seem like the value is there when I'm paying $175 for my Navigator and ~$80/week in gas. That's right around $520/month for everything. I don't know. I just know I'd want it to pay for itself and not by like $50/month. I'd want to see a significant savings in total. The current lease offers for an EV9 Wind AWD is $489/mo + 4k down and that's for 10,000 miles a year. The E Golf and Focus electric both fit what I want/need from something this size and both are compliance autos. I don't mind that, but the Focus electric has a pretty bad issue of coolant lines leaking into the battery pack and destroying that. The E Golf is air cooled, which I don't exactly love, but it seems to be a more reliable vehicle. It's also a Golf and that's a pretty solid vehicle to start from and it doesn't compromise interior space for a battery, like the Focus does.

I see lots of Chevy Bolts at decent prices with far better range than the VW. Electric Cars for Sale in Saint Louis, MO - Autotrader

Why not consider Lease as there are many attractive deals to be had or look at the used ID4 pro if you want VW. The VW E Golf was a compliance auto.

Yeah, this whole situation has risen the prices of anything I've been looking at by a couple/few grand so I'm more on hold for EV shopping now. I've kind of shifted to wanting a 2017+ VW E Golf as a work commuter and hold onto my Navigator for my family. The problem with that is; because they only sold them in California, they're hard to find and they're mostly not too close to me. The closest right now is in Ohio and about 280 miles away. For a vehicle that only has 125 miles of range (when new and not highway miles) that's a long drive home.

Very cool to see this happening GM and Rivian are the latest to pair up with Utilities to embrace the move to V-to-G and V-to-H actual use. Homeowners can work with their utilities to get the technology installed. Managed, bidirectional EV charging advances with utility, automaker support | Utility Dive

Seems Idiot47 has done what the rebates could not do. Fatigue from rising fuel prices and the over all volitility of the economy is making people move to Hybrid and EV vehicles. Electric vehicles selling before they reach Vermont dealerships As figured, Washington is one of the top 3 states with the cheapest electric rates making the EV the cheapest to drive.
