I am seeing a lot of negative articles on EV’s lately. They are using the slowdown in EV sales as a result of people abandoning EV’s. Yet I believe the slowdown is from high interest rates, inflation on everything, and people don’t have as much money right now because of inflation.

I just seen an article saying the true cost of running an EV is the equivalent of $17.33 a gallon, based on infrastructure, charging equipment, subsidies, etc. This kind of talk makes me sick, feels like some are pushing against EV’s in a big way, twisting the truth.

Coming from true EV owners what do you all think of this?

    Also many posts blaming US interest rates.

    Might need another “the world is bigger than America” thread as well.

      I agree that OP should have specified their perspective was from the USA. However, if you have a different perspective, then please express it. I enjoy hearing how the USA compares to other countries.
