They are far simpler with fewer parts. It is only a matter of scaling up manufacturing. The biggest cost is the battery.

I was in China two months ago and the use of electric cars is honestly changing the feeling of big cities. Delivery motorcycles and service vehicles are all electric now, and with the number of electric cars on the road, streets are a lot quieter now barring the frequent honking. Less air pollution too.
