Remember when the electric Dodge Charger launched and everyone said, “Nice car, but absolutely not at that price”? Yeah. About that. Right now, you can buy a brand-new 2025 Dodge Charger EV for $28,935, which is less than half of its original MSRP. Sitting on a dealer lot, with less than 200 miles on the […]
Woof. They drive really well, but the market just isn’t ready for a $60K+ fast car.
lol they’re notoriously not a good car. Have you seen the reviews of them? Has nothing to do with being a 60k fast car. The ioniq 5 is 60k and is selling like hot cakes. Teslas sold for years at that price point.
Ioniq 5 is not 60K. MSRP is currently… what… $35,000? Makes sense it would sell like hotcakes at that price. Maybe you’re thinking the Ioniq 6? That’s a car I like, but it’s not selling great, probably for the exact same reason.
Teslas sold for years at that price, but their most popular model is by far and away the Model Y, with its MSRP starting at $40,000. Seeing a trend here? EVs that sell decently tend to be cheap.
As for it being notoriously not a good car… that one, depends what you’re looking for! It’s a muscle car. It’s fast and sexy looking and unreliable. Folks who’ve driven one tend to like it, from what I saw. I tend to skip professional reviewers/cartube, it’s hard to tell who’s paying them to say what
Ioniq 5 is $65k for the fully specced version. How do I know? I own one. Nobody is buying base model anything.
Once again, nobody is buying base spec cars, especially not teslas, who’s only selling points are long range (not available in base spec) and ‘self driving’ (once again not available in base spec)
Not really any good response for the last one, besides watch a video and decide for yourself. Articles might say something is good but then a video shows an entirely different story.
