What does the average electric car cost?

Some electric vehicles are too expensive for me. I’d love to get something more affordable, but I’d like a ballpark. What does the average electric car cost?

Electric vehicles tend to be on the pricier side. In the U.S., the average electric car goes for about $66,000.
That’s according to the Kelley Blue Book. A new tracking report confirms that the average price of an
electric car
has increased 13.7% to $66,000, despite what you may have heard. This increase isn’t great news for the industry, as it was promised that EV prices would drop.
One of the top complaints about electric cars is their high prices. Such high purchase prices remain unattainable for the average U.S. consumer, even with incentives. But it’s still believed that electric vehicles stand to save you a ton over their lifetime.
