Costs:

Per-mile cost: On average, using either an AC or DC motor, Electric Cars will use about .3 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per mile. Assuming for the moment that you currently pay $0.13 per kWh for Home Electricity, every mile you drive in a BEV would cost about $0.03. Assuming gasoline prices to be $3 per gallon, and assuming your car gets 25 miles to each gallon, every mile you drive in the car costs about $0.12 per mile. (figures from the US Dept of Energy)

Battery replacement: you may need to replace this battery about every four years at a cost ranging from $1,000 to $,2000.
