The whole point is a gallon of "energy" is currently costing three times more than a gallon of gasoline; one actually costs less than a third for the raw materials, probably a fifth when you consider power stations use a less refined fuel and they are much more efficient than an ICE.So are you expecting a gallon of energy to cost the same as a gallon of gasoline?
Start ups don't charge premium prices just because they have infrastructure costs; in fact start ups often have loss leader prices on top of all the start up costs. The charging network needs to be dramatically improved and prices reduced for EVs to be truly succesful in the US. Many people don't have a garage or ability to have an home charger so on the road charging needs to be much more affordable.
The price delta between residential and commercial charging is far greater in the US when you compare it to many other countries. That is the real issue.
