      The motor yes. But an electric car does not move with a motor only.

      By just calculating the motor we are making up cost comparisons that do not reflect the actual cost of the car.

        Are you having trouble understanding the English language? The OP clearly stated the following:

        Gas engines are cheaper

        Which is patently false.
