Energy only. Purchase price, maintenance, and other expenses are not included.
Fewer moving parts
Electric drivetrains skip oil changes, spark plugs, timing belts, and exhaust repairs. Tires, brakes, wipers, and cabin filters still need attention.
Energy is priced differently
Gasoline is bought by the gallon at the pump. Electricity is billed by the kWh, and home rates are often lower than public fast-charging prices.
Driving style matters for both
Highway speed, climate control, and cargo affect efficiency in any vehicle. EVs tend to be most efficient in city driving thanks to regenerative braking.
