    Yeah no worries, I can only make assumptions about your situation when I make my estimate, without knowing everything about stuff like where you live, and to keep the math easy for myself. And I don’t think everyone could or should obligate themselves as consumers to go out and buy a new car immediately. When you’re in the market to replace (ideally before you desperately need a car when your current one gives up the ghost), that’s when you can see a used EV as a better value proposition than a ICE equivalent, or a new EV vs. a new gas car or hybrid.

    https://carcosts.caa.ca/ could give you a more representative value of the cost per year of BEV ownership in your province, and compare it to your own records of car expenses.
