Electric Segment: Zero Fuel, Lower Maintenance, Higher Purchase Price
Electric vehicles eliminate fuel costs entirely and reduce scheduled maintenance by up to 40% compared to petrol equivalents — no oil changes, no exhaust system, fewer brake replacements due to regenerative braking. The total five-year cost of ownership for an electric model is competitive with petrol equivalents in most developed markets, even before government incentives are applied. Battery degradation is the primary long-term cost risk: most manufacturers warrant battery capacity to 70% over 8 years or 160,000 km, but real-world degradation rates vary significantly by climate and charging behaviour.
