I used to commute in a 2016 spark EV which I got for $12k

Amazing car for your use case. 327ftlb of torque and reasonably sporty suspension so it's pretty fun.

I sold it because I do 50 miles per day on the freeway and wasn't comfortable with the small size anymore (e.g. Traffic going 65 to 0 on 92 bridge and pickups needing to go to the shoulder to avoid hitting me) but for a short, low speed commute, I think it's the perfect car

Any of the lightly used 80miles range class electrics are cheap and should be considered for this use case

Or honestly, keep your Jeep. Especially if it's 4x4... perfect stuff hauler and Tahoe car
