In this episode, we’re diving into the future of electric vehicles versus internal combustion engine vehicles as we look ahead to 2026. Join us and the team from Mercedes Benz Downtown Calgary as we unpack the real cost of owning an Electric Vehicle versus a gas-powered car, what to expect in terms of maintenance, and how range and daily usability stack up for both sides. We’re bringing our hands on experience to the table, from taking an electric G Wagon on a road trip from Calgary to Vancouver, to driving an EV all the way to Los Angeles and back when these cars first hit the market. We’ve been there, tested that, and now we’re sharing what we’ve learned to help you figure out what might be best for your next vehicle choice. Tune in, get informed, and let’s explore the future of driving together!
