It really depends on the car, some ICE car like the Nissan CVT is super unreliable and some EV like Nissan Leaf is as well. I would look at the track record of the company designing and making them, and see how they handle bad design.
EV's battery replacement cost / depreciation cost is the biggest cost IMO, not the electricity to charge it. If you don't drive much an EV can actually be wasted sitting there aging, unlike a gas car sitting there not using fuel. To me if I commute comfortably in the EV's range then it would be the best choice, if further out or frequent long distance driving I'd pick a hybrid or plug in hybrid, then if I rarely drive I'd just get a cheap used high mileage recent year gas car.
