Electric Vehicles More Expensive To Operate Than Gas Vehicles?

That’s certainly true in California where astronomical electric rates are the rule.

Certainly running on the plug would be most cost-effective here in Indiana where our electricity comes from low-cost coal.

Still nothing on this car in the winter.
