0-60 is an irrelevant luxury feature offered by EVs. It's a main selling point, the quickness.It can do 0-60 in 3 seconds. But ,whyt does it matter?
You specifically emphasized $60k Tesla as a luxury item that the elites from CA buy as toys, yet somehow an equivalently priced truck or SUV is not a luxury? Do you mean to say that the poor working class need them to survive?
This thread is about minimalism, a $60k vehicle, no matter how it’s classified is not minimalist.
6 of the top 10 selling vehicles in the US are trucks. Trucks are generally owned by men of all income brackets, and men tend to work in blue collar fields and are generally doing the home improvements. 2 of the top 10 vehicles are medium SUVs. These SUVs are used for off-road adventures, and cold snowy weather climates, where EVs are terrible. These have also replaced the family mini-van. These 8 vehicles are almost universally purchased for purpose based needs (rather than wants) and are often the sole vehicle the person owns so it is multi-purpose.
A $60k luxury Tesla, by contrast, is entirely a "want based" purchase, it has an owner profile of an urbanite or suburbanite, someone earning 3 times the national average income, works in white collar industries, and this person tends to own a garage to plug the vehicle in, and tends to own multiple vehicles. This person might also hire others to do home improvements and nannies or assistants so chauffeur kids around, do menial tasks, etc. This person represents the top 5% of Americans and is a very unique user profile.
Apples and oranges. There's 90-95% of Americans who have little need for an EV until they can compete with SUVs and Trucks at the same price points. I doubt I will live long enough to see that occur. You can rule out EVs in the north 2/3ds of the USA for the most part, except as 2nd summer cars. The EV market has a natural ceiling on ownership, as reflected by little adoption outside of a few zip codes in the very unique California market.
