PlaidBaron@lemmy.world 1 year agoRight but with the credits mine was comparable to an equivalent ICE. So why would I ever pick the ICE car? More maintenance, have to pay more for fuel. No thanks.
Not arguing EVs are more expensive on average but if the price is the same, the only reason to go ICE is if you travel looooong distances refularly.

The credits aren’t. You might find a model that say a particular time mage or a close comparison but the really is most of the the time you are sacrificing drivetrain power or features even after the EV credit + slightly lower fuel costs. And when you do have vehicles in this category it’s economy vehicles.

Federal gives you up to $7,500 off, some states give $5,000+ cash rebate. If I were to buy my bolt again it would cost me $12,000 total.
Thats literally the cheapest car you can buy in the US that I know of.

I should mention I live in Canada. The credits here are pretty nice. Maybe its worse in the states.
