Electric cars seen cheaper than gasoline models


Recommended Posts

Electric vehicles can use 100% renewable energy. You can generate this energy from sunlight falling on your roof much less than gasoline costs. You can now install solar power to power an Electric vehicle 12k miles per year for under $10,000. Buying gasoline at today's price, power a car 12,000 miles per year for the next 40-50 years would cost $60,000-$75,000 and that's if the price of gasoline does not rise over the next years.
