Charging an EV costs less than filling a fuel tank, with the cost varying based on location and charging methods. The total cost of charging an EV is influenced by electricity prices, where regions like Hawaii have higher rates than North Dakota. Charging time and outlet type also impact costs significantly.
The average cost of charging an EV with an 85 kWh battery pack at 16.68 cents/kWh is $14.18 for a 0-100% charge and $9.926 for a 10-80% charge. Comparatively, traveling 24.4 miles in a gas car at $3.59 per gallon costs $1.36 in an EV, around one-third of the price.
