He was comparing like for like. I don't think anyone will deny that EVs are more expensive

like for what like? give an example.

KIA Niro: $26,840. KIA Nero EV, $39,600. Plus taxes, fees, and loan interest. If you splurge on the Niro EX trim to get a few features that you don't really need but can't decline on the EV, that brings it to $29,540 - still $10K (25%) less. https://www.kia.com/us/en/vehicles

Chevy Blazer: $35,400. Chevy Blazer EV: $56,715. https://www.chevrolet.com/

Subaru Outback: $29K. Subaru Solterra: $45K.

No one makes a direct Sedan comparison that I am aware of, but:

Tesla Model 3: From $39K. Subaru Impreza $23K.

>Subaru Solterra: $45K.

All the Subaru Solterras at the local Subaru dealer were going for north of $66,000.00 when I was down that way a few months ago.

Sincerely: Hell naw.

Is that order from factory vs drive it away pricing though?

Did you not read the article? A major point in the article that this thread is based on is that electric cars are 28% more expensive than ice cars.

If you're going to spend $30k you can get an excellent ice or an entry level ev.

Why not buy one under 10k? How about 5k?

The average new car transaction in the US is $48k.

I do suspect we'll start to see lower priced EVs in the used market in coming years however.

Or not… what's the point when spent batteries give you very little range, and replacing them costs more than the entire vehicle?

How about a million k.
