Hi everyone,
I am trying to decide whether to keep my old car or buy an electric vehicle. Does anyone know of a good calculator or tool that can help compare the costs and benefits of each option?
You can try using calculators like the Edmunds TCO (True Cost to Own) or The Sierra Club’s EV Savings Calculator. These tools let you compare the costs of keeping your old car versus buying an electric vehicle, factoring in things like maintenance, fuel, and insurance. They can help you see the long-term benefits and costs of each option.
You could consider switching to a more fuel-efficient car, whether used or new. If you’re truly concerned about emissions, reducing your driving and minimizing all sources of carbon burning is the most effective approach.
