Now might be a good time to invest in an EV, considering possible future changes in subsidies and pricing.
How are you calculating this 20% battery degradation? Also, do you have the option to install a home charger?
Consider getting a used Prius and let your wife drive the Ioniq. Also, moving closer to work might help.
You’ve driven 40k miles in two years and paid a premium during a shortage, and now you’re surprised by the depreciation? An EV is not the problem here; it’s about understanding the nature of car ownership and market timing.
It’s unfortunate, but the Ioniq 5 and its platform are not faring well in the current market, exacerbated by some ongoing technical issues.

I’ve also faced a failed 12v battery and a costly repair for a gear shifter issue.
