A new analysis of vehicle data reveals that electric cars outperform petrol-powered models over time, particularly as mileage increases. The study, based on MOT test results, suggests that EVs maintain reliability and efficiency better than their petrol counterparts as they accumulate more distance. Experts highlight how battery technology and lower maintenance needs contribute to this trend. The findings could influence consumer choices as the debate over long-term cost and sustainability of electric vehicles continues.
