The New Democrats say they will back the Conservatives on a motion to pull the carbon price off all home heating until after the next election.

I get it, my 2010 Ranger gets 8L/100km, why would I trade that in for a $60k new car?
My EV gets about 15kwh/100km average over the whole year (including heating)
That works out to around $2.25 per 100km vs $14.80 for your vehicle at current prices in BC.
That’s a savings of over $12k per 100,000 km.
The difference between the gas and EV version of my vehicle was $25k, so anything over 200,000km is saving me money compared to having purchased a gas car. If gas prices go up over the next 10 years, I will save even more.
That being said, you probably shouldn’t get rid of a functional gas vehicle until it doesn’t work any more or becomes prohibitive to maintain.
Also my EV is fun to drive.
If they sold an EV compact pickup I would get one tomorrow but the Lightning is a joke, it’s a minivan with an uncovered trunk. And with a 25km commute it’s gonna take a long time for EV savings to catch up with a $10k truck :/
@nik282000 @BlameThePeacock Did you mean $100k?
