You do know that these figures include many things, not just charging costs which can vary depending on what the local utility charges per kWh and how much the charging station wants to charge you. As for Ford losing a lot of $$$$ on their EV’s, check this out:

Also, each state will be assessing each EV owner some kind of mileage tax since we pay for roads thru the sale of gasoline. This will be a new expense for EV owners.
How about the battery disposal cost for the EV owner?
The Costs and Potential Benefits of Investing in Sustainable Electric Car Battery Disposal Practices
Ev’s don’t need maintenance or servicing? Wrong. If you look at the Kelley blue book website, you will see this:
Our experts found that over five years, the owner of a Tesla Model 3 can expect to spend an estimated $3,115 on maintenance, or $623 annually. That’s slightly higher than many gas-powered competitors. For example, maintenance for the Genesis G70 costs $2,621 over five years.

The largest maintenance cost is the replacement of the battery. In so many years, the owner will have to pay for a new battery which will cost many thousands of $$$$ plus disposal fee. This cost alone is greater than the cost of a gas powered engine rebuild, if 1 is needed in this short period of time. I know of Porsches and Mercedes with engines over 300,000 miles that haven’t had anything major done to their engines, and then you have diesel engines that can go double those miles before a major overhaul.
