      In Denmark the cheapest new electric car is a Dacia Spring Electric starting at USD 20.500. This is advertised as "making electric cars available to everyone". If you can stand the injustice of driving a pre-owned car you can be lucky to find a 2015 Renault Zoe for USD 9.200.

        buying an electric car used sounds like a terrible decision, the battery will fry out and youll need to pay basically the price of the whole car to get a new battery

            Several reasons

            1. They can get away with charging more in the imperial core than they can in China
            2. AFAIK China subsidises electric cars whereas Denmark taxes them
            3. They're all made in China anyways. You save on shipping.

      Wish we had them here. Would have been perfect for my partner who needed a car just for getting to and from work and stuff, instead she’s stuck with this lemon her family helped her get lol. ( we have no trains here )
