minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink17•1 year agoWouldn’t it be far better to compare fuel cost per mile ($/mile)? This graphic seems useless to me. Maybe I’m missing something.
minus-squarePlaidbaronlinkfedilink7•edit-21 year ago@Hopscotch @mmatessa I can only speak for my situation but we’ve crunched the numbers. Per mile it is half the cost per mile than my wife’s ICE car if I used only public chargers. If I charge exclusively at home (which I do 99% of the time) it is a third of the cost per mile. This is in Canada though, where gas prices are very high.
