I have a similar situation and I just rent a car for those twice a year trips 🤷 Still cheaper than paying for gas
Literally impossible, given you have to pay for the gas of those rentals plus however long you keep them until you get back.
I pay 0€ for gas all year long, electricity is currently 0,0187€/kWh
The money I save from that equation easily pays for a rental twice a year.
You'd be paying even less with a plug-in electric hybrid.
How? Mind you that gasoline is 2€/litre here and electricity costs next to nothing.
You pay the same as an EV when moving around locally (just the electricity cost) and only have to bother paying for gasoline when going long distances instead of having to also pay for the cost of renting the vehicle.
