I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I’m wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

    I love mine. Hyundai Ioniq 5.

    2 years so far and it’s been great. Wouldn’t ever go back to gas. I don’t even have a charger at home, but there is charging at work. I only need to charge it like 2 shifts per week, maybe 3 if I did a lot of driving, so it’s not hard to keep it topped off just from work. Every once in a while the work parking lot is so damn full every single day that I can’t charge there all week… So I have to suffer the inconvenience of… Going to a gas station and using their fast charger. Ugh.

    Road trips take a bit more planning but I don’t go on many road trips anyway. One per year, at most.

    Weekend mountain trips and camping/skiing is great, though.
