Electricity for my EV is 8x cheaper than my old V6 per mile. It’s 4x cheaper than my wife’s PHEV when it’s using gas, 2x as cheap when in electric. Even if you’re burning through tires you’re straight up speaking FUD.

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.
