I have a 2012 petrol car with 72000 km on it and total costs of maintenance and (almost non-existant) repairs so far has been around $1500 (here in Poland). That's nothing compared to the extra upfront cost of an electric car. The economics are probably less favorable for petrol cars in countries where skilled labor is more expensive though.
