Why am I skeptical?

But if that's true, I'd consider buying one, so long as it cost about what a Honda Fit (my current car) costs. My current one, a 2017 purchased in 2018 (so it was used) cost me about $19k. I'm not remotely a fan of expensive cars, and to me expensive starts at around $25k. So no, I will not be spending tens of thousands of dollars more for the privilege of spending hours recharging a car.
