How are people still spouting this nonsense? EVs are more reliable than ICE vehicles. We know this from experience.
The discussion was availability of spare parts, not reliability. And has already been brought up, reliability won't save you from needing parts when someone plows into your rear bumper. Or when suspension parts fail, which they do on every car.
It's the EV folks that are spouting nonsense due to lack of experience. TCO is more than just oil changes.
> TCO is more than just oil changes.
Yeah, duh. EVs still have fewer maintenance items than ICE vehicles. How is this even a talking point anymore?
