Yes, but who here is comparing their hybrid or phev to a tesla? They have batteries in them as well that may need to be replaced at some point, just like a Tesla. It may be cheaper to do (roughly $6500 on a prius from what I can see online) but it can happen.
I may be wrong but it seems like the only ones being compared are gas versions.
This is by no means me supporting ev over ice, i'm just saying that you should at least compare cars properly. A basic Mercedes A class or 3 series seems to be a more appropriate comparison.
