We have an ICE mid-sized SUV and a model Y. Costco installed tires are within a few dollars of each other. There were more options for the ICE vehicle was the main difference. There are a lot of variables to really make a detailed analysis, it's a personal thing. If you ask 100 people on HN how much electricity costs at their home, you'll probably get close to 100 different answers.
- xnx 2y agoGood data point. Tire sets are similar prices, but EV tires tend to have to be changed more frequently because of vehicle weights and higher acceleration (driver dependent).
- fragmede 2y agoDepends on the EV and how you want to compare. Tesla's are running 19's stock which are gonna be a whole lot pricier than, eg a Honda Civic's 14's, no matter the rating (of which the Tesla's is gonna be higher rates).
