According to random numbers off the internet, a Model Y needs 16-18 kWh/100km. A comparable ICE car is going to need lets say 7-8 l/100km, so 2 kWh ~ 1l (which seems realistic). A kWh of electricity is generally not more expensive than half a liter of fuel, and maintenance costs etc are also still a factor.

If you use public chargers (there are no Tesla Superchargers here), then yes, it will be more expensive than the equivalent ICE car. But if you can afford to drop €55k on a new car, you probably aren't doing it to save money.
