It’s anecdotal but people shopping for new cars this past month have cleaned out the EV inventory in Calgary. It took a bit of disgust on the price of gas to push them over the EV fence. My buddy picked up a Cadillac Lyriq with 0 % financing.
EV lots getting cleaned out.

I hope he never needs parts, even something as simple as a front bumper. Check out Steve Lehto’s YT video about trying to get a replacement front bumper for a Lyriq..

How much is gas?
I am not commenting on EV / not EV - but I guarantee that swapping cars just to save gas will likely never pay out. If you needed a new car anyway that would be different.

Impulse buys rarely work out well...
Good choice. My LYRIQ is spectacular. Probably will lease a VISTIQ as soon as the 2027s hit the lot. (To replace a 2014 BMW X3). Used LYRIQ pieces have gone up a lot lately. My 2025 CPO Sport3 was $50K in October. Same car at the same dealer is $56k today.
