    If you can’t afford either, then the discussion isn’t really about you. Cost of living is an entirely different issue than ICE vs EV. ICE vehicles WILL cost you more over their lifetime (at least here in BC)

      The point of the article is that electric car adoption is stalling, and the reason is because they’re largely unaffordable, and the unaffordability of them and housing is only going to make it worse.

      So I’d say the discussion very much is about making transportation accessible.
