3 Cost and Affordability: Initially, electric vehicles were more expensive than traditional ICE vehicles due to the high cost of batteries and limited economies of scale. The higher upfront costs made EVs less accessible and less attractive to a broader consumer base. The charging efficiency is 98%.

If you ask a bunch of experts to predict the cost of a technology 10 years from now, they’re all over the map—9 out of 10 are wrong, and you don’t know which one is right. The second reason is that the grid we have is built out to places where there were coal mines and hydropower dams, not where there’s the best wind and sun.

And, if you consider lifetime costs of owning an EV versus owning a traditional internal combustion car, even if the initial purchase price of the EV is much more than your combustion car and you have to replace a battery for $4,000 after 7-10 years, the EV still costs less to operate. If you charge with solar, is way less.
