Question 1

How does the EV recommendation algorithm work?

Accepted Answer

Each vehicle is scored across 6 dimensions: range, value (budget), cargo space, DC fast charging speed, 0-60 acceleration, and tech/software quality. Your slider weights determine how much each dimension matters. Scores are normalized 0-100% across all vehicles and weighted-averaged to produce a final match percentage.

Question 2

Does the max budget include the federal tax credit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The budget filter applies after subtracting applicable federal tax credits (up to $7,500 for new EVs). So a $42,500 EV with a $7,500 credit has an effective cost of $35,000 — this is what is compared against your budget.

Question 3

Which EVs are included in the recommendation engine?

Accepted Answer

The engine includes 15+ popular 2024 model year EVs covering sedans, SUVs, trucks, and hatchbacks from Tesla, Hyundai, Ford, Rivian, Chevrolet, Kia, Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Nissan.
