Hi Gilders yes agree with you if you do low miles and buy an Ev the total cost for buying/running an Ev maybe more than that of an Ice. Savings in this case are directly related to usage.
In my particular case Ev works for me but I think everyone needs to choose carefully. I save a fortune running an Ev.
Why?
95% of my charging is done at home at a very low rate. Compared to previous ICE car over 46000miles I’ve saved £6000 in fuel spend.
I lease the car so not really impacted by purchase price.
For me and I get it will not work for everybody (I can live with the frustration of having to charge on longer trips occasionally so that overall I can enjoy the cash saving).
I do recognise it won’t work for everyone though.
Electricity will need to increase 500% to cost the same as ice fuels and of course if electricity increases then ice fuels will aswell as electricity is used to refine.
