EV rebates under review as B.C. looks to offset cost of removing carbon tax
Rebates for electric vehicles, along with other parts of the Clean B.C. program, could be on the chopping block as the province looks to balance the estimated $1.5 billion additional fiscal hole in its budget left by the termination of the consumer carbon tax this week.

Our car has a relatively low annual mileage. Since we are buying an electric car, I decided to do a little calculation. At 10k km a year, we'll save about €1k on fuel. We plan to keep the car for 10 years like the previous one. That's a total savings of €10k. I will save another €4k minimum on maintenance and repairs. That makes a total difference of €14 on a €24k car, and there is no way we would have gotten a comparable car with an internal combustion engine for €10k.
EVs can be economical even with low mileage. It's just about upfront capital.
