Americans Are Spending More Money to Drive Worse Cars
An Atlantic piece argues that Americans are paying record prices for cars that are worse than what their money used to buy — larger, heavier, more expensive vehicles — while electric cars, despite their advantages, are not catching on with mainstream buyers. Discussion is centering on rising vehicle costs, declining affordability, and why US consumers are shunning EVs even as technology improves.
Why now: New car prices and EV adoption are pressing consumer concerns, and the Atlantic's contrarian framing invites debate.
