Is the electric vehicles better or worse?

Pretty much yes if you can charge it at home.
Less noise. Less stink. More acceleration. Less moving parts -> less maintenance cost. Electricity is cheaper than gas (especially in europe, and even more if you get solar panels), you will make back the higher inital cost.
For short trips (4 hours driving) you never have to waste time charging. Because it just charges at home. For long trips it’s not bad either. You should take breaks from driving anyway, you can just charge then. It also charges faster when it is closer to empty.
Those are the factors that matter to me, and to most people (though some are more nervous about the charging and the range, but that’s not neccesary.) There may be some factors I am not taking into account (maybe you like when it feels more “mechanical” to drive?), but since owing an EV I have not noticed anything I miss from a gas car.
