Economic
With electricity one can drive three times cheaper
- Electric car consumes much less energy than fuel car
- Electricity is relatively cheaper than fuel
Small maintenance costs
- No repeated engine repairs (there's only one moving part in an electric motor)
- Traditional "oil change services" are history:
- No need to repair the exhaust pipe
- No oil changes
- No filter changes
- Not as much brake services (if there is a regenerative braking system)
Try our counter and figure out how much you could save with electricity in ten years!
Some math…
- Electric car uses about 10-15 kWh in 100 kilometers
- that is equivalent to about 2,3 liters of fuel
- when charged from an electric outlet at home that "fuel" costs about 0,74 euros per liter
