Electronic money? Electric vehicles are cheaper to operate long term.

You need to recharge electric vehicles (of course), and the recharging systems I am informed of require electronic money. Not all people have it. (And not all people accept leaving a DB track of their stops.)

"Cheap" makes no sense here - you may have misunderstood the post. Whether charging costs 1 penny or 1 grand, it is still inaccessible if the plugs are automated totems not accepting cash.
