I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I’m wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

    Replacing brakes on an EV should be much less frequent, since regenerative braking doesn’t use the brakes

      Funnily enough I heard mechanic friends say that EVs need the brake rotors replaced more often than combustion cars, because the EVs use the brakes so infrequently that the rotor just rusts so badly it needs replacing.
