There are an infinite number of scenarios for break-even analysis based on the simulation user inputs. For analysis, this study analyzes two basic scenarios, the purchase of a BEV versus ICEV and the purchase of a PHEV versus an ICEV. All scenarios leverage the mean monthly driving distance from [45], which is about 1100 miles, and the state selected for all scenarios is Texas. Miles per gallon for gasoline vehicles is set to 30. All other variables were left at the initialization default unless specified.
