Am I going crazy of has the amount of anti-EV “articles” started to skyrocket. Just today, I’ve seen a “Why I’m not buying an EV” concern article, some accusing Biden of killing EVs, “The true costs of buying an EV,” and my favorite: “Study: The True Cost of Charging an EV: $17/gallon.” (That study was funded by Exxon Mobil, lol).
What’s going on? Why is all the EV hate in the media ramping up?

    The ioniq 5 was pared with the Tucson, which is a good fit for size. But, one has smooth acceleration and a 0-60 of 4.4s and the other is clunky ice and 8-13 seconds to 60!

    Have you driven both? Other than acceleration, they drive shockingly similarly.

      I haven’t driven either. Though now that I drive an ev, all shift points bother me and clunky ones really bother me.

      Just the shifting and crazy difference in acceleration would make the ev worth the price premium for me.
