Good and bad news for me.
Good in that they'll still make and sell parts for my 9th gen si for another 20 years, but I have no idea what to pivot to after I've installed the world's last lower control arm bushing.
Eh, there's always Toyota.
I'm American leftist, so I inherently lack faith in literally everything, so, maybe they'll still be a viable company in the states in 30 years, maybe they'll become Suzuki and only make four wheelers and golf carts. Time will tell.
Check out Aptera. They should start shipping vehicles next year.
Failing that, Rivian is a great EV brand if youu have the money.
I'm kind of excited about the Telos. I hope that has established itself and has a good reputation by the time I'm ready to replace my Kona.
Yes! I’ve been keeping an eye on them, too. They’re supposed to offer Aptera solar panel options for the MT1. I’m curious what kind of daily range they can get through solar alone. For me, the possibility of solar supported charging is the most exciting part of the next generation of EVs.
I'm drawn to the size. I like my little car but it's always a challenge when doing home projects. Getting an EV that's about the same footprint, fits us and the dogs but also lets me haul like a long bed pickup? Yes, please!
I don't drive much or very far so even the entry level option would be good for me.
