Hey guys, time to replace my mom's 2016 Civic LX that I modified to the point nothing else left to do, lol (and yes, it is my mom's car but she enjoying mods)
She drove 12k miles since 2016 (2000 miles yearly) and I want to get her either BEV or PHEV as a next vehicle.
Obviously Tesla Model 3 RWD with 250 mile range, slightly used directly from Tesla is about $35k which is OK
But are there any other options? I myself Have 2018 X 100D so tesla is my first choice
Also looking for 2019-2020 Nissan Leaf Plus (220 mile range, used about $28k), again charging isn't an issue as she drives only 2000 miles yearly, no commutes, no highway, purely city and very short driving distances
Another option is fancier i3 120ah with range extender, about 160 mile range for about $25k
Plug ins are only Prime comest to my mind honestly, with Clarity plug in discontinued that is the only option I see.
Oh, and car has to be somewhat small, compact for easy parking and maneuvering, well safe as well
Any other ideas? Keeping it for another 5-6 years for sure. Budget is below $30k
