operation cost makes no sense, especially now with electricity prices growth(at least in Europe) is pretty much same or even cheaper to drive ICE car than EV, mind that's with extreme gas taxation with still almost no tax on electricity, do you really believe if majority of cars would be EVs gov won't introduce new electricity prices to milk the owners?
comparing ICE and EVs is not fair, because the latter one is susbisidized from everyone's money, without subsidy they are extremely expensive, their operation cost is same or higher (and let's better not talk about how long will last batteries long term and their replacement cost) despite low taxes
- kreetx 4y agoThey are very well comparable as both get you from A to B. Also, a sibling comment[1] seems to say that gas prices have risen more thus making it now even more cheaper to drive an EV than an ICE.
