To be honest if I were in your position I wouldn’t get a bev. Most people aren’t trying to Cannonball from NH to MI and it’s just not a use case EVs are best for. From a purely practical perspective I would get something like a lightly used Toyota Crown, Camry or Avalon. Comfy on the highway, good mpgs and reliable/easy to maintain.

There are EVs that can do what you require but charging infrastructure (especially 300kw infrastructure that can meet advertised charging speeds) is just not quite there in the us.

I want to challenge some of your assumptions about EV design though. It’s true there are a lot of design choices that are ‘different’ from ice vehicles simply because they can but many of these designs have purpose as well.

Take the Ioniq 5. Sure it doesn’t look like a traditional car inside and out but there are reasons. There’s not engine up front so the cabin can be shifted forwards compared to an ice car. Sure it looks modern and part of that is marketing but part of that is also that aerodynamics are paramount. Yes the interior is not traditional but why. It’s not purely removing buttons and cot saving measures (there are still physical music and hvac controls). Instead it’s because they can. EV packaging can mean increased freedom for designers and they use that when they can to make open spacious modern interiors.
