Not until the advances in EV tech slow down. The difference between a 2012 EV and a 2022 EV is a lot bigger than between the equivalent ICE cars. Or take 2008 and 2018 if you want a comparison that can feel unfair but accurate.

And then you factor in the physical degradation of parts like the battery. An engine wears out at a far slower rate than a battery.

It will probably take a few decades for EVs to be everywhere, tech to advance slower (relative), and batteries to improve.
