With a whole new generation of battery-electric SUVs hitting the market, the electric vehicle is finally family (and budget) friendly 🚙
When I went electric car shopping four years ago, I couldn’t find anything that matched the convenience, price and size of my Honda SUV.

If you can’t plug your car in at home–for instance, if you live in a condo and your board won’t budge on installing chargers, or you park your car on the street outside your home—you’ll lose most of the convenience of an EV until public chargers become more widespread.
