My 2009 Outback Wagon died on me this past summer 😭😭😭

It’s so frustrating that if you buy a modern car you have to give up any semblance of privacy

Appreciate all your suggestions!

At the risk of sounding nit picky, I’m not a fan of sedans so the Lucid Air/Ioniq 6/Polestar 2 are out.

The EV6 and Luriq are enticing. The polestar 3/4 is super cool but I hate the no physical climate buttons/huge iPad display.

Honestly the Volvo V60 hybrid is my ideal car if it were full EV and a little cheaper.

I’m paying ~$450/month for my lease now(Hyundai Tucson), but I could probably afford up to $1000/month if it’s something I really liked.

Yeah I’m coming to terms with that now lol. Debating between leasing with the hopes to get a full EV after another 3 years, or just buying a PHEV.

As someone in a rural state, cold weather range is one of my chief concerns. I work from home but on the weekends travel to far away backcountry areas to ski.

I’d like to get a full EV when my current lease expires(2.5 years) but the pool of cars that are affordable, have AWD, and 300 miles of range(aka 180-225 in winter) is quite limited.
