As both EV adoption increases and internal combustion engine vehicles have become more fuel efficient, states are seeking to offset lost revenue from the gas tax. Just as conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) cars measure fuel by the gallon, EV owners measure their energy consumption in kWh. kWh tax begins on July 1, 2025.

From Resource-Media: Much as one would weigh the pros and cons of a two-wheel-drive vehicle on snow or a diesel truck in extreme cold, consumers should consider an EV’s cold-weather hardiness when shopping. Gas and diesel vehicle owners in cold climates face reduced mileage, frozen fluid lines, dead batteries, and long warm-up periods.
