    Idk about that. Electric cars have been half the price to drive and people still buy gas cars due to the ‘inconvenience’ of long charge times on road trips.

      I think lot of people not too serious about buying electric dont really understand the savings either.

      They see a bigger monthly payment and dont account for how much in gas they’ll pay, plus some of the extra more immediate maintenance like oil changes. Its harder to think about the longer term maintenance though.
