Dumb question, but what will charging your car every night do to your electric bill? My furnace was broken for 2 weeks, so I was running space heaters. My next electric bill doubled, and it was only for half a month of extra use. I am also skeptical that the power company won't raise rates with all the increased demand.
Electric cars are fast off the line, and probably fun to drive. If that's the reason to buy one, then knock yourself out. If youre buying one thinking you're saving money, then I'm skeptical.
If you’re just comparing “fuel cost” much of it depends on your location and electric supplier. If your utility has “off peak metering”, charging the car at night is downright cheap.
My SIL has one in Wisconsin, and his “fuel” bill is about 1/3rd of what it cost to drive his Subaru.
For comparison, those space heaters typically are about 12 amps. Just spit balling, you could probably charge an EV about 150 miles on the same draw in a 24 hr period.
