Back-of-the Napkin : No, It's Still Cheaper To Drive 100 Miles In An Electric Car
10 Feb 2023 | Abstracted from Inside EVs
"Let's consult the back of an envelope to check the math on Jalopnik’s claim...Given the Boston electric prices [26¢/kWh], it would cost $8.66 to travel 100 miles..."That would be $9.82 per 100 miles with the ICE vehicle, compared to $8.66 with the EV. Close, but driving the EV is still cheaper.
"The Corolla ICE at 35 mpg combined would need gas prices to be $2.83 for cost parity."
