Ok no oil changes. Everything else you said has yet to be proven

Huh? The fewer moving parts is a fact, and in almost all cases that will mean fewer mechanical issues. Plus we have over a century of history to look back on to know which requires less maintenance. As for the brake pads, yeah it's a small thing, but with most of the braking being done by the motor to charge the battery (regenerative braking), the brake pads will almost certainly last longer.

But I get what you're saying. Let's just give it a few years and see how the numbers play out.
