Cost of ownership

Electric cars are cheaper to run than conventional cars. They need less maintenance, and charging an electric car works out cheaper than refuelling a gas or diesel vehicle. Buying one now is a solid investment for the future.

Electric cars generally enjoy lower maintenance costs. This is mainly down to the fact that they have far fewer moving parts than conventional cars, in which the gearbox alone contains hundreds of individual parts. As well as their simpler powertrain, electric cars require almost no oil to run, and enjoy a striking reduction in wear on brake pads thanks to the regenerative braking system. However, there may be slightly more tire wear, due to the car's instantaneous torque and increased weight.
