When I was car shopping after my car was totaled last year I worked out that at my then-current millage (90 miles per day 4-5 days per week) getting the cheapest electric car that would meet my needs would cost be about as much per month (payment, insurance, electric) as the cheapest ICE vehicle ONLY if I maintained that amount of daily milage. Any less than that and the electric option would start be more expensive because the base payment + insurance would be so expensive it would eat up most of the monthly cost.
Also renting a car for a day/overnight trips sucks. I used to live like two blocks from an Enterprise during the 7 or so year range that I didn't own a car and experience was always awful the 1-2 times a year I'd have to do it. The availability of vehicles was always terrible, the people working there were scummy, pickup would take 30-60 minutes every time. My last time there really sucked and their "remedy" was a 10% coupon off my next rental, which never happened.
