A month or so ago I did a comparison between charging a Chevy Bolt at home, with just a level I charger, and putting gas in a Nissan Versa, Hyundai Elantra, or Kia Forte.
The Bolt will be cheaper per mile if G/E > 9.4, where G = price of gas in $/g, and E = price of electricity in $/kWh
I looked at average gas prices and residential electrical rates in all 50 US stats plus DC, and in all of them G/E > 9.4.
This comment has a table showing G and E for all states and DC at the time [1].
