Good morning. The only "advantage" of an electric is that someone else (power plant) burns the gas for you. But at 1.5 times the price of a regular car is a no go.
(As a cool aside, some fuel-burning power plants are already crazy efficient. For example, my university has a trigeneration plant that, in addition to electricity, provides steam and chilled water to the campus by extracting the residual heat that would normally be sent straight to the atmosphere. I believe the plant uses an ammonia absorption cycle to produce cold water from a heat source, which is pretty awesome in its own right.)
Now, I'm not sure if this process happens fast enough for an EV to be more efficient over the projected lifetime of the battery. I think it ultimately comes down to your local regulatory environment, existing distribution of energy sources, and public willingness to invest in more efficient infrastructure.
Overall I think you can quite easily make an argument for 200 g / kWh as a conservative grid estimate these days, which means 40 - 50 g / km driving typical EVs. That's half what the smallest fossil cars were managing.
Price is a fair complaint.
