So, driving EV's is cheaper right?

Weeelll ..it might get more expensive pretty soon.

Just read an article on a (German) news portal. The insurer Allianz has done a study into repair costs of electric vehicles.

The good news is ...electric vehicles have no more accidents than ICE vehicles (I mean why would they?)

The not so good news is, having had that accident, electric vehicles cost around 30 % more to repair than an ICE vehicle, plug in hybrids up to 50 %

heelllooo insurance premiums there is a new customer base to fleece
