Let's do some electric vehicle math
Posted by: TheRealRealReal ()

If you're thinking about buying an electric vehicle, it's good to do some math and use some logic.

According to Kelly Blue Book, the average price of a new electric vehicle as of October of this year was $55,676. By contrast, the average price of a new compact car was $25,240 — less than half that amount. The average price of a new compact SUV was $34,122

So, how much will an EV offset and how long will it take?

Let's take $21,000 as the starting point since that's how much extra you would pay for an EV if you bought a $34,000 gas car/suv.

The average mpg for cars reported by the EPA recently said cars are maintaining 26 mpg. If you drive about 400 miles per week (with a 15 gal tank), that would be a tank of gas. Current VA average is $3.24/gal and that's supposed to go down a little. So let's just use $3/gal to be super conservative in our estimate.

15 gal x 3/gal = $45/week
$45/wk x 52 weeks = $2,340/year
$21,000 divided by $2,340 = 8.97 years

You would have to keep that vehicle 8.97 years for the cost to BREAK EVEN.

So, the other reason to buy an EV is to save the planet. Here is the problem, though.

22% of CO2 is caused by transportation. 22% of CO2 is caused by electricity production. Wait a second. That means that (based on the current infrastructure) we would be making the same CO2 if we all magically moved to electric cars overnight. The CO2 production would just double from electricity production.

I'm pretty certain the future infrastructure will get better and electricity production (by fossil fuels, coal, nuclear, etc) will get cleaner.

But, right now, it's all a scam. You will not save the planet, and you'll spend a lot of money for nothing.

Let's start with all the working poor in the US , they can't afford to buy a new car even if it's 18 k , then add in the Obama care they think all will buy their taxes that they want to raise higher the cost of gas and everything now with the worse incompetent old fool of a president in office , a president their leftist media fawned over as they vilified the good President Trump who would have a handle on these higher costs

Next factor in the Virgina car tax even at 18 k it's still so much the working poor can not afford it

Finally look at the once US war on poverty that came from the mid 60's when Democrats were promising to end US poverty, dents were made then the Democrats abandoned it totally with their scheme to increase the numbers of future Democrat voters tied to their welfare programs, thus we have seen millions of illegals and public income legal immigrants flood into the US vastly increasing the numbers of not only the working poor but all the poor

There is one very necessary thing that is needed to push a society to pure communism, huge amounts of impoverished angry people , the people Democrats are creating with illegal immigration and their divisive policy's to make the people choose honor and self respect or welfare , sadly when such choices are offered to those who do not know what freedom really means their choice is too often welfare

It doesn't matter because the big investors(Koch's, Bloombergs, Buffets, Carnagies, etc) and companies have already made the decision that American cars are going to be electric.

The new infrastructure bill has billions for electric charging stations and Amazon is building over 1000 new super charging stations.

Add them all up and you see electric cars are a pant load of BS designed to overfill the bank accounts of the richest Democrats in this country who are the ones pushing them down our throats

What's needed is to get rid of liberal hypocrites "house trucks "large over powered POS with 4 doors and 4 WD that can not haul shit with a short bed and are only used now and then to pull a light colorful jet ski to Lake Anna to endanger wildlife and all living life in its path as it spews pollutants out to foul the waters and air

Re-read the OP. Building more charging stations doesn't change how the electricity is made.

You can hold breath until the coal cars come along, but the decision to move off gas to electric cars has been made. It's over for gas cars in the USA. You can't fight rich investors who can pay off Washington.

Because when we talk about gas powered vehicles we totally include the cost and effects of the oil fields, refining, transportation of fuel, construction of vehicle components... oh wait, you didn't do that... nevermind then. Lol.

Those are all irrelevant because they are already fixed costs. You don’t need to build more oil fields or other pieces of infrastructure to extract and refine the oil. There are several types of rare earth elements that are needed to build EVs. They require all sorts of sophisticated and specialized pieces of equipment and specialists like PHds to manage and undertake extraction.

You guys make some good points but you're still missing some very important parts of the equation.

How about the back end? Currently there is no method to properly dispose of the batteries and the way in which they must be assembled and exist - make disassembly and recycling impossible. Ask around about what they are doing with them now and you will find a process not unlike nuclear waste disposal. Basically they are burying them where they will exist for thousands of years.

Libtards are not smart enough to understand how to actually help the environment. This is nothing more than a racket designed to enrich a few entities and other hangers on for the next decade at the expense of the public and the environment.

Nothing more than a politically motivated fad.

What resources are needed strictly for electric vehicles? Please tell me you're referring to lithium batteries... the same lithium battery components that are in every single smartphone, most new battery applications, being installed in data centers all over the world to replace antiquated lead acid batteries. Are those the resources you mean? You need to be more specific.

Electric cars are COOL, man. If you can afford it, that's the reason to own one.

Plus you can make believe you are saving the planet. The only truth there is that by buying one now, you encourage them to make better ones in about 30 years and have some semblance of infrastructure in place.

So, enjoy your COOL electric car. Just don't plan on driving on a long winter or summer road trip, since you can't run the AC or heater very much before you're out of juice. Mostly, they're just good for driving in a few cities. There's no charger within 300 mile of Aunt Ethyl's place.

This is fairly true.
But not so much for right now.
They don't hold a candle to the utility of gas burning cars. If you are big-city oriented, you may have a very distorted view of this.

It's sad that you are buying that promo piece as some kind of fact. They haven't built anything, aren't recycling anything yet and say they "can handle any kind of EV battery, without being concerned about the makeup". Of course lots of people are TRYING to recycle batteries since there are so many. It won't be profitable or effective and they won't get far. If you truly understood the way this works in the real world today and how these batteries are made, you would understand what a pipe dream your article is.

I hope you have stopped using oil and gas in your life since it's so horrible. I'd be willing to bet your giant dildo collection was partially manufactured with petroleum products, so don't forget about those when you tell us how green you are.

All the Trumptards here are discouraging the use of non fossil fuel vehicles, but the second their dear leader starts "Trumps Electric Cars and Trucks", see how fast they come around.
We all know that as soon as Trump smells all the money in electric vehicles, he's gonna get aboard and start plastering his name all over it. Same goes for green buildings. Trumps ideology is entirely based on what he can profit from and we all know he's gonna go green sooner than later.

The battery disposal issue is a real thing, but that doesn't mean we should give up. Scientists will keep researching until we find renewable solutions. Electric vehicles are in the their infancy and will only get better. The same goes for all green technology.

You libtards think all the conservatives blindly follow Trump. What a fucking joke! The green stuff will get better, but like everything else the libtards do... forcing it down peoples throats with some fucking mandate isn't going to work when the tech is still shit. There might be 7 or 8 people in the US right now that give a fuck what Trump thinks.

I have numerous friends that have purchased high end (non-Tesla) electric vehicles over the past year. Half have gotten rid of them for various reasons and several have been stranded because of some technology fuckup related to the electric components. The others are generally unimpressed.

The best way to make actual real Americans buy the shit is to make it reliable, efficient and affordable. Or you can follow the democrat model and just mandate it by passing laws to remove the vehicles that actually work today.

People love that.

Something is wrong with this break even analysis because you have no figures for the yearly cost of electricity to operate an EV the same amount of miles as the gas (of which I have no idea or the comparable mechanical upkeep costs over time).

Find out the cost to drive the same amount of miles in each vehicle and then use the difference between the two costs to determine how long it will take to pay off the difference in purchase price. If the operating costs are the same between the two vehicles, you are going to be out the $21k difference in purchase price until the end of time (not counting for any differences in deprecation values).

Technology is being proven that captures CO2 from coal power plants and injects it underground in sealed formations. Will be interesting if the libtards still go nuts trying to ban reliable coal power if it is CO2 neutral. I suspect they will because this has nothing to do with CO2 and everything to do with not allowing the hicks in red states to have good paying jobs.
