EVs will likely be cheaper to operate and maintain in the long run. But I agree, I would still chose a V8 over an EV Camaro, in the same way i'd choose a M6 over an A10 even if it's slower. At the same time I realize we'll be aged off by a generation of folks that don't care about those things or even want to drive on their own. It's why racing is dying.
