My wife owns a Tesla Model 3. She's purchased it about a year ago. She loves it. She bought it b/c of two reasons - our environment and in the long run - the savings. So far, so good. Her only negative is it's a sedan - she has driven an SUV for 20+ years.
I'm a car guy. I grew up with a brother who would race anything he could drive. I was very skeptical. I spoke to a friend who owns a Model S and he explained the virtues of the car and how easy it was to transition from ICE to an EV. After driving it a few times, I fell in love with the car. The acceleration is amazing.
We are saving money but I cannot quantify it. My wife used to fill up her car weekly and it would cost around $30/week. I don't believe our electricity bill has increased that much.
