How Much Does It Cost to Charge an Electric Vehicle? (A comparison at home and on the road, with gasoline)::Few people know what a kilowatt-hour costs them, so they don’t realize how cheap EV home charging is versus gasoline. On the road, it's more complicated.

$0.058 / kWh at home for me.

About $0.115 at my friend's house.

About $0.25 at some public chargers.

Those are amazing prices.

In Germany I pay:

-0.33$ at home and work

-0.72$ - 0.88$ on public chargers

Gas is currently about 7.68$ per gallon. ._.

Right?!? Wildly jealous of those low electricity prices. I'm also in the EU and paying 46.6c (euro) / around 50c US at home.

46 cent per kWH is insane for home prices the fuck.

Tesla super chargers are €0,36 per kWh

Yeah, the quoted $40 fillup is in Hawaii where everything is expensive.

So what is that in total if you were nearly depleted?

That’s insanely cheap. We pay $0.11 off peak and $0.33 on peak (4p-8p). At $0.33 for my PHEV it’s no cheaper than gas at $3.99/gal. Guess when it’s scheduled to charge only?
