But it really depends on type of vehicle and type of usage.
Lots of start and stop miles, and electric might come out ahead. For example, family with kids that need to drive to various places.
Lots of short drives, but not a lot of total mileage, gas might still make more sense. For example, retiree or spare car.
Lots of long commutes at highway speeds, gas might still make more sense.
