No maintenance costs? Let's see, the last time one of my cars was in the shop, it needed a plug on the automatic transmission. That's something that might be saved, does an EV use a transmission with multiple gears?

I also will need brakes and tires. EVs have both of those don't they? But the brakes are regenerative. Does that mean more maintenance cost or less?

I really want to know, because I am waiting for EV tech to get a bit cheaper, and in maybe 10 more years (I hope to get that much out of my existing cars) I'll get an EV.
