Also keep in mind that ICE doesn't translate %100 to Electric use wise.

The infrastructure of gas is you basicly fill it up once a week, at a gas station.

Unless you live out on a farm, you can't have a refueling station in your house. You can't also run a gas pipe, as gas stations need trucks to show up and refill the gas. There is a lot of logistics into fuel processing and delivery that is specific for ICE.

Electric? You just have a high amp 240V circuit installed and charger. for a GOOD charger its about $1k, and another $1k USD to have the line installed. All the infra is already there.

You don't need a week of fuel, only a day.

Also, as noted below, EVs are far more efficient.
