At an EPA equivalent 99 mpg the electric cars will be more expensive than gas/diesel once the EPA is finished jacking up electricity costs with ever more burdensome regulations. Expect electricity to double in the next five years with this EPA.

And don’t forget to add in the cost of disposing of old batteries. I am sure the “re-cycling fees” will be substantial.
