    Pretty irrelevant when the cost of EV cars is almost double. Stupid article.

    Wake me up when EV cars are actually at a point of replacing combustion engines. Currently they are not ready.

      Yeah I want an ev but can’t buy one until the costs are the same or lower than gas cars. Can’t afford anything more

        My work does free electric car charging. I got an electric car in March and haven’t spent a penny on charging it since.

        Over the four years I plan to have it before I sell it on, the lack of fuel cost is going to more than make up the difference in cost.

        That won’t happen until people accept that 100 mile range is enough for 90% of commutes. Most of the battery capacity in current evs are wasted on marketing.
