Since you don't like my reference to the "one of these things just doesn't belong" song, consider this: My Toyota Prius put as much wear on the brakes as a Tesla or my Fiat 500e, despite being a car with an ICE. There are many, many, many hybrids on the road that similarly us regenerative braking despite burning gasoline. So in every sense, the reference to brakes does not belong in that list.
- pfdietz 7y agoThat's fair. On the other hand, it now means electric cars are being compared against hybrids, not pure IC engine cars. Hybrids may be more expensive than the latter, as they have more components.
