If the UAW gets its way on pay increases and things like reviving pensions, the Detroit 3's hourly labor costs could more than double to $136 an hour.

Tesla Employees Make $20 Less Per Hour Than GM, Ford. UAW Proposal Would Double the Gap.
There is another reason WHY ANY E-vehicle will EVENTUALLY be cheaper than ANY IC engine vehicle..............the Electrical engine uses fewer parts than the IC engine.
