I understand what they were going for. Batteries are heavy, so keep the car light and nimble and completely impractical as anything but a local commuter.

Ooof. So we only have street parking here, but we have a public charger just steps from the house (not Tesla)

I’ve got a few years left on the Mazda. If the leaf can get access to Tesla chargers I might be game.

EVs are such a mess in North America. Unless I want a Tesla it feels like I can only get gigantic SUVs or expensive luxury cars.

I just want to replace my Mazda 3 with an electric equivalent
