In all 50 states, it's now cheaper to fill up with electricity than gasoline (media.kbin.social)

@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% od the time) it is a third of the cost per mile.

This is in Canada though, where gas prices are very high.

I did the numbers for Alberta a long time ago when electricity was really cheap and it came to 1/9 the price of gas. But that was cheap coal which we really shouldn't have.
