That's 5 years where you won't have an EV - depends on what the utility you get in those 5 years.

- adam_arthur 5y agoYou're right that utility and opportunity cost of that lost utility matters. My personal utility for an EV is largely negative in the short term though. Too bleeding edge, higher risk that technology shifts such that current models devalue quickly, fewer charging stations than gas stations. Current range is sufficient at purchase, but how does range change as vehicle ages? A lot of those things will be much improved over the coming years. I don't gain anything from converting in the short term other than the aspirational/goodwill parts
