An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

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.

Then why are EVs priced higher than ICE?

What does EV and ICE have to do with comparing electric motors to gas motors?

I think you are having trouble understanding the English language. Most people have heard of a thing called context.

“A programmer is going to the store and his wife tells him to buy a gallon of milk, and if there are eggs, buy a dozen. So the programmer goes shopping, does as she says, and returns home to show his wife what he bought. But she gets angry and asks, ‘Why’d you buy 13 gallons of milk?’ The programmer replies, ‘There were eggs!’”

Now as we are describing car types one with a gas and one with an electric engine, and comparing their prices, maybe put the LLM context tokens slightly higher before responding.

No, the OP didn’t say a word about cars. Learn to read please.
