Ford has similar conquest rates for its EV. The following is from 2023, but the rate should be about the same now.   The Ford EV conquest rate in Q1 of 2023 was over 60 percent, according to the automaker, meaning that it hasn’t wavered much over the past few months as the Ford E-Transit, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and Ford F-150 Lightning continue to prove appealing to those that own not only other-branded all-electric vehicles, but those that own vehicles from other brands in general.   This appeal has proven so strong, in fact, that the automaker has made conquests part of its overall EV strategy as well.   “What we’ve learned is that we can conquest more as we go electric than we thought,” CEO Jim Farley said in a recent interview. “Most Mach-E and Lightning customers are new even though the products are first-gen products. So, second-generation products, we’re going to lean more into the conquest.”

Yea, I have an adapter for both my F-150 Lightning (complimentary from Ford) and my wife's MME GT ($200 extra). While it's not a big deal to use the adapter, a built-in NACS port for the vehicle is better, and as twintornados mentioned Ford was the first OEM through the gate to join the NACS revolution.    Yet Hyundai/Kia has built-in NACS port on several EV now while Ford customers are still waitin'

its amazing what happens when they get stuff right...nice to see once in a while lol 

The problem you have is with expectations-If your used to driving say a Focus or Fiesta sized vehicle in the EU...going to something smaller like what the Ka was is going to be a non-starter.   The other issue is that EV are "expensive" to manufacture because they don't have the benefit of 80+ years of improvements that ICE engines have had. Its hard to make money on EVs when there isn't enough manufacturing capacity for cells for batteries, when an ICE engine can be built for say $1500 net price.    The Chinese can sell cheap because they are getting subsidized by the CCP  

That I agree with...it seems like they have next to nothing coming out in the next 36 months. 

I'm sure we'll see D) all of the above come.   I've said for a while now that I think leasing is the way to go for a BEV since the tech is changing so much.

I own a 2024 Navigator and I my driver seat shifts when I make a left turn then a right turn and vice versa. Are you experiencing this problem too?

I'd argue it never made sense because it realistically wasn't ever going to be 20k

Not to sound pretentious, but I think that's because as a design enthusiast I just see and notice things that a lot of people don't. It's kinda like how I can see the '65-66 influence in the front of the s650 with the shape of the grille, and headlights, or how I can see how the rear of the s650 with the sharply indented decklid is a call back to the '67s concaved rear end. But most people have no idea what I'm talking about.    There's just a lot about the attitude of that rendering, the long hood, flared fenders, fastback roofline, muscular haunch, that all tie into the 60s mustang design in a modern way. Mustangs from say '74 up until 2004 didn't really have that proper mustang look that was iconic, they kinda lost all the things that made mustangs look great. They didn't have particularly long hoods, they were pretty slab sided, their rooflines were more notchback and less fastback, more upright in shape. 

https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a65317250/slate-truck-price-change-ev-tax-credit/   This truck no longer makes sense with a price above $20k. Removing the ev credit means the cheapest, bare minimum model will probably be somewhere around 27,500-30,000. With the exception of fleet/businesses, I cannot see anyone buying it at that price when the maverick xl hybrid comes in around that price as well and looks like a luxury vehicle next to the slate. Will Slate survive?
