I heard someone said that, at the end EV will cost you almost the same as gasoline vehicle, if you have to change the expensive battery every so often. Can someone please give me more info on this? Thank you so much.

    Yeah, but overall battery and charging cost where about half/half. The biggest factor by far was value loss.

    It’s not the big difference it may seem.

      You cut the charging cost and it is a lot. The numbers I’ve seen in the US are the charging stations will cost you 4x-5x what it will cost you at home.

      And fast charging stations is hard on the battery. Slow charging at home is better for battery longevity.
