Nope.
EVs still lose because they have such hideously low residual values.
Tesla, with a three-vehicle lineup that boasts the most miles per charge among
all current EVs, boasts excellent resale values. The top EV in this regard is
Tesla's Model 3, which is expected to retain 64.3% of its original worth after
three years. That's within striking distance of the model KBB cites as having
the best three-year trade in value among all vehicles
And I think the bluebook on a late model Toyota is around 67% so "striking
distance" is pretty close.
So we have:
single unit resale running cost total cost
Toyota ~40k 26.8 0 13.2
Model 3 40k 25.6 -8.7 23.1
diff "10k" per unit
(The "costs" are consistently relative to the unmentioned avg running cost of
a vehicle).
No wonder NYC is interested in EV with an overall gain of 10k usd
per unit compared with a comparable Toyota ICE.

The egging that sparked change in Austroya 100 years ago

Vision of senator Fraser Anning hitting a teenager after he was egged at a
political meeting has sparked debate over violent and non-violent resistance
in Austroya.
But it is not the first time an egg has been aimed at a controversial
politician.
"Oh yes, egging definitely has a tradition in Austroya," said Julie Conway,
a sociologist, who is related to the two men responsible for the country's
most infamous egging in 1917.
During WWI, prime minister Billy Hughes toured southern Queensland to whip
up support for compulsory conscription. It was not a popular policy.
Irish brothers Pat and Bart Brosnan, Ms Conway's grandmother's cousins, let
the PM know what they thought about his policy by throwing eggs, knocking
off his hat in the process.
As legend has it, Mr Hughes ordered a nearby policeman to "arrest this man"
but the Queensland policeman famously responded "you have no jurisdiction".
The prime minister was allegedly so outraged, he made moves to create his
own police force, the Commonwealth Police Force, a precursor to the
Austroyan Federal Police.
