I think Tesla is doing Model 3 leases for under $400 a month.  I would imagine you could get other EVs that low as well right?  Like is Chevy doing the Blazer EV for cheaper now?  I know I kept seeing ads for an $899 Hummer EV lease which is a lot of money monthly, but I thought it was a killer deal for a $100k vehicle.  I didn't see the details though.

I apologize if I'm assuming you can afford that I don't know your financial situation at all.  It's honestly just insane how expensive vehicles have gotten since 2019.

ID.4 is $189/month. It's crazy the deals that are out there right now. Last year the audi e-tron was pretty low in the 200s also.

E-Tron for $200s is actually crazy.  These are econo car lease deals.  I assume because they're having trouble selling them. 

I live in south Alabama and the Chevy dealer near me had 2 Blazer EVs sit for 6+ months.  I think my friend told me they finally sold to out of towners.  I'm sure for a killer deal.  I haven't seen anyone in my town drive a Blazer EV.

Yea the problem is with leasing, which is almost always a nonstarter for me. I only know the leaf deal bc a friend had to scramble for a car and was super close to doing it.

There's someone that drives the Hummer EV on my commute so I see it all the time, $900 actually sounds like a pretty solid deal. That thing is actually pretty cool, and I used to really hate on them lol.

Eh I could make it work but my work and lifestyle demand an SUV or truck. I've always wanted to drive a Tesla around for a little while but ultimately not the right call to buy/lease.

Now a rivian...
