The rates utilities charge for electricity vary wildly across different parts of the world, just as gas prices do.

In 2016, it was titled, “30 Reasons Your Next Car Should Be Electric.” At this point in time, I think it’s more appropriate to say that you should buy that car today, not wait any longer. Hopefully you’ll agree after reading through this list.
