I've said it before, electric cars won't work here where I live, a tiny island in the Pacific. There will be no mechanic or tech on the island to be able to repair even small problems in an electric car. 25 cents per kilowatt here is ludicrous, along with just hiked price for gasoline at $4.35 per gallon. I drive a 2007 3 cylinder 1 liter Toyota Passo with everything manual and mechanical except for the engine management and power windows for a daily and I have encountered zero problems. Modern cars from 2010 and newer are nearly unrepairable without some dumshiet dealer-only code access. Cars have become fugging appliances man...
If you're on a tiny island in the Pacific, why are you concerned with what car you drive? Sounds like you need to get a bicycle if the place is so small.
