Contrary to what people believe, electric vehicles are not cheaper than gas-fueled vehicles
05/05/2022 / By Mary Villareal
President Joe Biden and the Democrats have launched an all-out effort to force Americans to buy electric vehicles, claiming that they offer cost benefits for drivers. That couldn’t be further from the truth.
Right off the bat, there are the increasing costs of charging an EV. In the U.S., it will cost up to $2,000 to install a charging station at home – not to mention the higher monthly home electric bills that come with it. With the nation’s already delicate power grid, electric cars will only add to the problem.
Repairs are also more costly because the EV market is new. Moreover, few mechanics are trained to repair them, so drivers will have to find repair shops, fewer and farther between, with higher labor costs due to the supply and demand.
