It's just basic newtonian physics, it takes energy to start and stop moving and a lot less to keep doing what you are doing.

- bushbaba 5y agoWouldn't it be more-so that with ICE vehicles you loose 100% of the kinetic energy as heat when stopping. With an EV you convert a portion back to the battery packs with regenerative breaking.
- hobs 5y agoCorrect, though many times costs are not just fuel - total ROI includes service cost, availability of replacement parts, insurance costs, etc - a NG car could cost more in fuel and still be cheaper for effectively forever depending on how the books land.
