[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]EVs are largely a scam. Compared to a hybrid, an EV is worse for the environment (from pollution during battery production and reduced vehicle lifespan even with battery replacements) and costs more money (vehicle price, insurance premiums, cost of electricity, rapid depreciation, etc)[/quote] Hybrids are great. I couldn’t buy a comparably equipped Prius for the amount I paid for my EV SUV. The Prius is selling above MSRP with a long wait list, at least last year. And the cost of electricity per mile is lower than gas, so I have no idea what you’re talking about. Insurance premiums aren’t a thing - Priuses are also cheaper to insure than Audis, so what? The cost of insurance is based on actuarial risk, not whether it has a battery or not. And I don’t care about depreciation that much, I drive cars long enough it’s a difference of a few thousand dollars over 10+ years. Which, I wish everyone would do. [/quote]
