I have a Model X on the east coast of the USA. I charge at home, and only use superchargers when away from home (even though I have free supercharging). In the last year, just 4% of my car's energy has come from superchargers.
The Tesla app, which may be biased, says that I've saved $639 vs gasoline in the last 12 months.
- duffyjp 4y agoThey must be comparing you to a performance ICE car? Or you log lots of miles? I only spend around $300 a year on gas for my Prius, though I'm only logging 4000 miles a year on average. 50MPG goes a long way.
- ajross 4y agoLikely, yeah. The market equivalent to an X would be something like a Porsche Cayenne getting 23mpg. It's absolutely true that plugins doing around-town driving are going to get very close to an EV in energy costs (though still burning a lot of real fuel; you can buy renewable electricity, but not gas yet).
