I'm not sure you understood what I wrote. EVs can pay their own difference. Depending on where you live (what your gasoline and electricity costs are), an EV can save $10,000+ in fuel over their lifespans, making some EVs cheaper than comparable ICE vehicles. I.E. you can get a new Chevy Bolt for $27k, then you'd save $10k on fuel over its lifetime. $17k is cheaper than a comparable car. I believe you'd also get a $7.5k tax credit.
