That's hardly true, most states have enacted an EV tax on registration that covers the same wear and tear from the gas tax.
When I last ran the numbers I paid more for the EV tax(which I'm happy to do in order to pay my fair share) then I did in gas.
There's also a simple solution to the federal tax, add it to registration just the same way the state tax works.
my state, Georgia, is damn obnoxious with a two hundred dollar fee per year to declare as an EV; my car which is a Volt can declare either way; which when I ran the numbers put me beyond my normal driving on gasoline alone. Meaning I decided to not list as an EV because it punishing, not rewarding.
