Largest Price increase you have seen ?
I’m sure it’s possible with careful slow driving, maybe not using AC. Range is increasing especially for luxury EVs, but most are having a hard enough time paying for regular cars below $50k. There are plenty of cars that go 200 mph at $100k+ but I wouldn’t go around telling people that cars can go 200 mph when most can just get over 100. Range anxiety is real and the difference between a car going 200 miles or less and 500 is huge. Charging takes time, filling gas takes 5 min.

Real world range for most entry level EVs near $50k is about 200-250 so enough to get to Kona and back carefully, but that leaves you with an empty battery and no reserve. Again battery range decreases during the life of the car, what might be enough to get to Kona now might not be enough in 6 years, especially if you are regularly filling to 100% and emptying to 0%
