All true. I did explain why EVs should be less expensive to maintain in the link to that topic saying "Historically, maintaining a car was focused on the internal combustion engine (ICE). This meant that the owner’s cost to maintain the car was closely linked to the engine. Since the EV has no engine of this sort, maintenance could be less expensive." The rest of the linked story does include facts from third parties about the 5 year maintenance costs of the Leaf Vs Prius. Prius is still ahead, Leaf is almost even with it. In the story above I do say the Leaf has good long term COO. When Tesla includes free electricity at SC networks is that too a gimmick?
