I am probably going to trade in my car for an EV this year. I have been following the technology for a while but I really do no not like all the touchscreen nonsense.

Do you like your EV? What is it? What are the pros and cons of your experience?

The Ford MachE and the Subaru Solterra are at the top of my list but I like the KIA too.

I'm pretty set on trying to find a slightly used one for all these reasons, thanks for your response

I picked up an Ultimate trim used 2021 Hyundai Kona EV with under 30k miles on it back in December for under $19k. Haven't regretted it for a second. It was a corporate lease previously so it was in pristine shape.

Charging at home is amazing.

FWIW, the Kona EV (at least my model) mostly has buttons and knobs. The screen is 10", but it's one of those ultra-wide ones so it's not as big as the diagonal measurement makes it sound.
