Have you ever seen an electric car driver a few seconds after learning that a charging station costs half a pound per kwh (that's US$0.66/kwh)? They'll be hype

They'll be hyperbolic all right :-)
- alexc05 9y agoHa ha - OK that's funny. But realistically it changes the value proposition for owning your own charger at home, or going to a Tesla charging station where the cost is 20p. I mean when I lived in the UK Gas was something over a pound per liter (roughly $5 USD/gallon) So on a typical mid sized car with a 15 gallon tank we're looking at about a $75 fillup. Compare to the cost of a full charge electric with an 85kwh battery. $58 USD to fill (at 50p ) $23 USD to fill at a tesla charger and $10 to fill up at home.
