More efficient manufacturing, falling battery costs and intense competition are lowering sticker prices for battery-powered models to within striking distance of gasoline cars.

    Are you not including the cost of electricity into your estimate? It is cheaper then gas manly because it is not taxed out the wazoo yet.

      That is completely false, and I might add, very stupid.

      Gas in America is crazy cheap compared to everywhere else due to government subsidy.

      America ALREADY USES electricity EVERYWHERE.

      Like we use a whole lot of it without the EVs. I mean really just a huge amount, and there is no realistic way to make it cost more for one specific usage.

      In short, what you said was dumb and you should feel really bad about it.

        It is not dumb and I don’t feel bad for asking a question. I am looking to get an EV and asked some people that have had one for a while about the recharge costs and 2 of 3 had no idea.
