people here are missing the point,
as far as energy delivered to the wheels,
gasoline cost four to ten times as much
as electricity

You must price your steaks based on the cost of a bottle of A-1.
I’ll bet you probably buy cars based on brand like, oh say a Honda, and never really discover the true cost of ownership when compared to other reliable cars that cost half as much and save twice as much... merely because of “trade in value”.
Keep up the “good work”.

gasoline cost four to ten times as much as electricityIt takes me three minutes to fill my gasoline tank, which gives me 400 miles city driving. It would take me four hours to charge an electric car on a 240 volt line (12 hours on a 120).
Time is money. Do the math.

Electricity isn't immune from the laws of supply and demand. Electricity prices are already on the rise do to green stupidity that requires non producing windmills that create an artificial rise in demand. Dump all cars into the mix and prices will be many times what gasoline costs.
If you don't like giving your money to EXXON and OPEC, buy a horse and eliminate all petroleum based products from your life.
