Most of my driving is longer range, a lot of it in the winter, actual winter, I live really far up north.
An EV that gets me home in the winter is about twice as expensive to buy as a gas car that is good enough, both used. Difference in deprecation alone is more than my fuel costs.
I’d have to drive 50% more to justify electric over gas.

So you have a use case that isn’t the norm.
Anyone who only drives a modest amount of miles every year purchase price is almost always the dominant factor.
