Formulas Used:

Charging Cost Calculation:

\[ Cost = \frac{Battery\ Capacity \times Electricity\ Rate}{Charging\ Efficiency} \]

Cost Per Mile:

\[ Cost\ Per\ Mile = \frac{Electricity\ Rate}{Efficiency\ (miles/kWh)} \]

Gasoline Cost Comparison:

\[ Gas\ Cost\ Per\ Mile = \frac{Gas\ Price}{MPG} \]

Key Factors:

  • Charging Efficiency: Typically 85-90% for Level 2 home chargers
  • Electricity Rates: Vary by region and time of use
  • EV Efficiency: Ranges from 3-5 miles per kWh for most EVs
  • Gasoline Prices: National average around $3.50/gallon
