I think a used Nissan Leaf from 2020 or so can be had for a reasonable price for this purpose right now. Depending where you are of course.



Buying a recently manufactured Leaf today is buying technical debt for no good reason. Stuck with a Chademo charging port that has a shrinking installed infrastructure base, an interior that hasn't been significantly upgraded in many years, and a heating system that is sabotaged to the most inefficient heating possible, electric strip heating unless you buy the top SV Plus trim.


For some definition of "reasonable" I guess. Are they under $4k? That's about my limit for what I spend on a car. I have good luck finding reliable ICE vehicles in that price range.
