I don't need road taxes to charge my vehicle. But if they are including them to be 'fair', then they are already straying outside of what they claim to be saying, and are only including the charger to make it seem like there is no difference between gassing up or charging up, because they know a straight up 'fuel' comparison is a clear loss (on average) for an ICE.Semantics, I suppose, but the title is actually "Costs of Fueling", which could mean the things needed to fuel in addition to the fuel itself. The chart breaks it out into Energy Costs, Road Taxes, Cost of Chargers, and Cost of Deadhead Miles.
...The road taxes are there only because they're already included in gas (gas tax), so they're adding the countertpart on the other side.
