like for what like? give an example.

KIA Niro: $26,840. KIA Nero EV, $39,600. Plus taxes, fees, and loan interest. If you splurge on the Niro EX trim to get a few features that you don't really need but can't decline on the EV, that brings it to $29,540 - still $10K (25%) less. https://www.kia.com/us/en/vehicles

Chevy Blazer: $35,400. Chevy Blazer EV: $56,715. https://www.chevrolet.com/

Subaru Outback: $29K. Subaru Solterra: $45K.

No one makes a direct Sedan comparison that I am aware of, but:

Tesla Model 3: From $39K. Subaru Impreza $23K.

>Subaru Solterra: $45K.

All the Subaru Solterras at the local Subaru dealer were going for north of $66,000.00 when I was down that way a few months ago.

Sincerely: Hell naw.

Is that order from factory vs drive it away pricing though?

Did you not read the article? A major point in the article that this thread is based on is that electric cars are 28% more expensive than ice cars.

If you're going to spend $30k you can get an excellent ice or an entry level ev.
