Cost Comparison Between BEV and Fossil Fuel Vehicles

[joesan]

I recently had to make a choice of which car should I buy and after a lot of deliberations, I decided to go with a Hybrid and while I did so, I did some basic calculations that I generalized to give me an overall cost for an ownership period of 15 years.

Here is the calculation: https://scastie.scala-lang.org/udoQOSkqRViNdfn6TKq5dQ

You can change the parameters and hit run which will give you the result. I have assumed static prices over all the years, but to get a real indication, you need to put in dynamic prices over the year. I have assumed a lot in my calculations (no yearly taxes are taken into account, no price fluctuations over the years are taken into account etc., ). I would like to hear feedback from you on this calculation.

Note: Please do not use this calculation for your decision on which car to purchase as I'm not liable for it's correctness!
