EV already beats ICE in some dimensions of economy.
- fnord77 2y ago10 year TCO for a barebones Prius is lower than TCO for an EV, when counting things like battery replacement and charger installation.
- Dylan16807 2y agoMost cars can't dream of being anywhere near as efficient as a Prius. But yes if you can get your gasoline spending under $1000/year then you can probably match or beat electric. Throwing US averages at a calculator says an equivalently priced Leaf would have $200 less in fuel costs per year compared to the Prius getting 57 mpg. At that point it's up to the random maintenance costs.
