That's part of the issue. In my case though, I easily spend more than $5500Aud on petrol a year. And especially due to all the new battery tech being released like sodium ion, and an increased number of second hand cars, prices will likely rapidly drop and range will rapidly increase too.
It's really a tradeoff between upfront cost (EV), and long term cost (Cars).. And the upfront cost keeps dropping, and long term cost of cars will keep growing (rightfully, as there should be environmental and health taxes on it)
