Electric vehicles are very energy efficient

If you don’t tolerate bullshit, you should quit posting bullshit!

So you pay .42 cents per kwh for electricity

Last time I checked a kwh is 11.7 cents., but in Australia 42 cents might be closer to reality.

Peddle cars are even more efficient, as long as you don’t fart because methane is ten times as damaging as CO2 to the climate. 🥴

Methane
Is it as important to address as carbon dioxide?
While methane doesn't linger as long in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, it is initially far more devastating to the climate because of how effectively it absorbs heat.

In the first two decades after its release, methane is 84 times more potent than carbon dioxide. We must address both types of emissions if we want to effectively reduce the impact of climate change.

I don't tolerate bullshit to well where did you get the price of .42 cents per kwh

All windmill, all the time Denmark is .42 cents. That is where we are heading with doubling or tripling of generating capacity to accomodate intermittent renewables to any degree.

I don't know what Denmark and its electricity price has to do with Canada. The unsubstantiated .42 cent per kwh somehow became arguments against electric vehicles in Canada on this thread. Manitoba electricity rates are less than one quarter of that at 8.6 cents per kwh.

With respect to the electricity price in Denmark. Denmark's electricity taxes amount to 41%.

One of the reasons for the high price of electricity in Denmark is that taxes account for a large proportion of the overall price. As of January 2019, energy taxes made up a share of approximately 16 percent of the average EU residential end-user electricity price structure. In the Danish capital Copenhagen, however, energy taxes amounted to 41 percent. This was by far the highest energy taxation in major European cities.

Speaking of taxes, my carbon tax portion of my home heat last month was 39% of the cost of the gas used, before being taxed with the gst as well. And more pertinent to the case in this thread, please do tell us then the amount of taxes included in gasoline purchases, seeing as we need to compare bananas to pineapples, or sheep to wheat.

Really funny because your post was entirely figures.

What is the going rate for road tax on EV electricity?

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME HOW MUCH ROAD TAX THERE IS IN EV ELECTRICITY????
If there is none then how is it that petroleum fuel sales are subsidizing the use of EV's on roadways everywhere?
LOL

Cars, yes in some areas, highway trucks, nope.
