Trump killed all rebates.

Ariya builds buffer in to mask early degradation.

All but one Ariya in my area are $20k+. A well specced is $30k.

The math does not work if you own a functioning car unless you are willing to substantially downgrade.

I had heard that prices went up as a result of the oil supply crunch.

Not seeing where the downgrade is, though. Even the cheaper trims of Ariya are nicer, better equipped, and more powerful than any new car in the low-mid 20s price range and the used ICE car market is entirely nonsensical, with some 1-3 year old used entry level models selling for almost as much as their new counterparts and popular 10 year old models that already have half their lifetime miles selling for north of $20-$25k.
