Electric cars can be cheaper than internal combustion cars as early as 2027, according to a study

The study expects larger vehicles, such as SUVs and crossovers, to be cheaper than their petrol or diesel counterparts by 2026. Smaller cars should start to match the combustion periods in the following year.

By 2030, the average electric car should cost less than a combustion car, even before tax incentives are taken into account. For these conclusions, the study envisages, among other things, massive investments in the production of electric cars and batteries, which will thus become cheaper.

The agency expects that by 2026, the average price of a medium-sized vehicle will be 19,000 euros, 484 thousand crowns, whether it is powered by gasoline or electricity. By 2030, he predicts that the average price of an electric car will be 16,300 euros, 415 thousand crowns, while the average price of a vehicle with an internal combustion engine will increase slightly to 19,900 euros, 507 thousand crowns.

BloombergNEF is one of the more conservative predictions, according to The Guardian. UBS Investment Bank predicts that price agreement will actually be reached as early as 2024.

Sources agree that battery prices are falling rapidly. A study commissioned by the non-profit organization Transport & Environment predicts that battery prices will fall by 58 percent over the next decade. This could reduce their price to approximately 1,200 crowns per kWh, ie less than $ 100 (2,100 crowns per kWh), which many consider another important milestone.
