IPCC is meant to sell to policy makers, not individuals.

Even there, they fail at it. The economic gains of big deployment are not mentioned.

The "bargain" of an electric car costs at least 3x more than a gasoline or diesel version.

Solar panels and wind turbines have limitations. They're good to build, regardless. Electric vehicles have lower range and require changes in infrastructure to work. Still with it.

Now for adapting agriculture, which is still required, that is a pure cost.

This is Elon's Patten too but afew overlapping goals/narratives, new ones distracting from the last.

Around 36k is spent on the average car in the USA.

The ID.3 is cheaper than that without subsidy (it is almost on parity with the regular Golf with subsidy) and if you were to 3x that average you would arrive in luxury car territory. You would get a Model X.

The ID.3 will also save you around $800 in maintenance and fuel (in Germany at least) per year.

Around $36K is spent on the average new car in the US. If your primary goal is to own a car as cheaply as possible with still great reliability, buying a 5-year old used Camry/Accord/CR-V/Prius (which will overwhelmingly not be pure electric) is a better choice than any new electric.
