They might be ok if
1) theres an incentive on the price - fleet buyers, company cars etc
2) someone else is paying for it
3) you can charge at home. Dont charge it overnight though - see unlucky 13
4) you always travel to the same places and theyre within your range
5) you never need to use your car to go somewhere unexpected in an emergency
6) you never need to charge at a public charger especially at motorway services
7) you dont mind the car being written off because of a minor shunt, and nobody will take the risk of a battery repair
8) you dont drive much in the winter - your range will go down
9) you dont drive much in the summer - using that a/c will cause your range to go down
10) you don't mind spending the night before your trip looking at maps, weather forecasts and websites to make sure you plan your trip
11) you dont mind loading 300 apps on your phone just to make sure you can use all the chargers
12) you have an extra budget for tyres because these things are heavy and go through more tyres than the michelin man
13) you can park it a long way from your house. If it decides to go on fire, you aint putting it out. Neither is anyone else.
..14) you don't need to tow a 1.5t caravan, 2 people, luggage, fishing tackle and a dog to Scotland for your holidays - your range will go down.
