I appreciate that concern and agree that it's silly to have 2 propulsion systems to maintain. That's why I'm looking to replace my TSX with a full EV. I want at least 1 car that requires no maintenance.

It's linked in my signature as a Google Sheet. I have it setup so that 2 cars can be compared side by side, and it works with EVs, as long as you have an estimate of how many miles per kWh the car will average and your utility rate. Let me know if I need to clarify something.
