    Laughs in italian gas prices: we are at 2€/lt.

    1gal equals 3.78 lts. Do the math…

    I’m so happy with my EV.

    5€/gal would mean 1.32€/lt. I don’t remember seeing gas that cheap in the last 10 years at least.

      €2/liter is $8.77/gallon.

      We are built on car transportation. Some people I know drive 2 hours to get to work in vehicles that average 15 miles per gallon (6.38 kmpl). At 50¢/mile it would be a national emergency.

      Edit, I think these people are full of it and only quote the longest times to get home on the very worst days. I’m betting they take a little more than an hour to get there.
