I am seeing a lot of negative articles on EV’s lately. They are using the slowdown in EV sales as a result of people abandoning EV’s. Yet I believe the slowdown is from high interest rates, inflation on everything, and people don’t have as much money right now because of inflation.
I just seen an article saying the true cost of running an EV is the equivalent of $17.33 a gallon, based on infrastructure, charging equipment, subsidies, etc. This kind of talk makes me sick, feels like some are pushing against EV’s in a big way, twisting the truth.
Coming from true EV owners what do you all think of this?
Well I drove from Denver to Western Nebraska in my Tesla Model Y. I charged at my house fully for less than $10 dollars. I charged at my mother’s house which I was able to fully charge my vehicle for free (not for her, but I am sure it was less than $10). So I should be able to get home for maybe one partial supercharge so, I think I will pay less than $30 dollars to drive close to 500 miles. Definitely way under $17.33 a gallon.
