That’s up front cost. There is a substantial savings in gasoline. Since these are upscale cars, they should be compared to a similar sedan or SUV, like a Lexus, BMW or Mercedes. Note, though, that the base price model only has a range of 160 miles. If you want a range of 300 miles the cost is an extra $20,000. 300 miles is more like a gasoline powered car today. But if you don’t need to drive more than 120 miles per day (you can’t use the full range reliably) and don’t just have to have jaw dropping acceleration, the base car could be a reasonable replacement for an upscale vehicle.
