People shopping for electric vehicles starting next year will be able to get a $7,500 federal tax credit off the sticker price while at the dealership, rather than having to wait months to receive their tax returns.
Not much to add. Other than the IRS PDF is written is legalese…
Typically in those cases, you plug in at work, assuming they offer it.
Alternatively, you might be able to get away with a simple level 1 charger if your apartment has a standard outlet available.
You can talk to your landlord about making changes, but failing that, you probably want a hybrid instead of an EV. Electricity at ‘the pump’, so to speak, can be more expensive than gas and certainly takes longer.
Does anyone own an EV and lives in an apartment that doesn’t have chargers? How do you get by?
I kinda did this (but not really). The building had a few parking spots with 120v outlets nearby and they let me run a cord to one.
Its quite possible there’s something like that available if its outside parking and can’t hurt to ask. Less likely if it’s underground.
Can come to a side agreement for electricity cost showing cost on app or via some other tracking.
A buddy of mine has an EV at a condo where there is no way to charge, nor is there where he works. He just goes to a supercharger once a week or so.
Granted, then you’re not saving time or money over gasoline cars, but it is doable
Time no, money probably. It costs $10-$20 to fully charge at a supercharger.
