Electric vehicles cheaper than combustion by 2027, study predicts

A prediction from Bloomberg. Only 5-6 years to wait to see if it comes true. If EVs and plug-in hybrids are going to be much cheaper by then, there’s even less incentive to buy one now. A looming shortage of battery materials could put a spanner in the works.

Electric cars will be cheaper to build than fossil fuel vehicles across Europe within six years and could represent 100 percent of new sales by 2035, according to a study published Monday, says TechXplore.
Carmakers are shifting en masse to electric and hybrid models in order to bring average fleet emissions under a European Union limit of 95 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometre, or face heavy penalties.
The study by Bloomberg New Energy Finance found that electric sedans and sport-utility vehicles will be as cheap to make as combustion vehicles from 2026.

Where will all the additional electric power come from to power these cars?

They'll burn natural gas and oil at power plants outside of view of course...

Ok, but where will all the additional necessary power plants come from? AFAIK, they haven't even started designing, let alone permitting, let alone constructing, the number of new power plants that will be needed.

Fairy dust and unicorn farts will make all the electricity necessary to power the new electric cars........
