Here comes a rant (sorry). While it is true that the sticker price on
long range electric vehicles is a bit higher than their gas
counterparts, after a few years of lower costs for charging, no oil
changes, no mufflers, no brake wear, and cheaper maintenance in general,
they are already less expensive. I can go about 510 km (317 miles) on a
single charge. I can travel pretty well anywhere in North America
because of superchargers. Where I charge the most is at home because I
plug in when I get home and the car is ready to go the next time I need
it. On the road, it usually takes less than half an hour which is time
to get a coffee but barely time for lunch. The best thing about them is
that they are fun to drive.
