My kid had a job with a lot of driving involved at the time, so we bought a Cruze Diesel, it routinely got over 60 mpg highway.
And it was a nice car I thought, for about $23K we paid. Obviously, it was slow once you got past the torque band, it was a manual transmission. The daughter had a 2012 Cruze, an absolute strippo, not a single option, it also was a pretty nice car.
My point is that an EV as compared with an ICE model of similar size and function will likely be a good deal quicker on acceleration. So, you get that benefit.
But we're not very close yet to cost equivalence. Maybe the F-150 is close. That one sparks my interest.
