I understand why many are buying Ev's priced under a $100,000.  But why are rich people buying a luxury EV when there are many luxury gas powered sedans? To save money? Status symbol? I don't get it. yes

 

It's the 'in' thing to do right now Nick.

Fashionable to be seen in a EV right now, like bell bottoms, platform shoes, Ray-Ban Wayfarer shades, Prius when they first came out, etc.

Plus, even well off people don't mind getting money back from the government with all the tax credit and subsidies, then there is the HOV privilege, saving time. 

Anyways, imagine in a alternate universe where there was never any government subsidies for EV, it won't be as popular right now.
