[quote=Anonymous][quote] A study from the U.S. Department of Energy has shown that the total cost of traditional gas compared to an EV is about 4 cents per mile, and this includes services such as oil changes, new wiper blades, brake pads or most common cost of maintenance, according to InsideHook. A 4-cent-per-mile difference might sound abysmal, but in the long haul, EVs are more economically friendly when it comes to having a lifetime vehicle. The average internal combustion engine car today can be expected to last 200,000 miles, according to Car and Driver, which makes maintaining a traditional vehicle about $20,200 and an EV $12,200 — an $8,000 difference. When it reaches 300,000 miles, the gas cars would cost $30,300 for maintenance and EVs cost $18,300 — a difference of $12,000.[/quote] https://thehill.com/changing-america/sustainability/energy/559971-finally-heres-the-exact-cost-of-owning-an-electric-car/[/quote]
