Compare what it costs to drive an electric car versus a gas car for the same miles. Enter the EV efficiency in miles per kilowatt hour and your electricity price, then the gas car MPG and fuel price, along with how many miles you drive each year. This calculator returns the cost per mile for each, the yearly cost of each, and how much you save by driving electric. Electricity is usually much cheaper per mile than gasoline, but the gap depends heavily on local electricity rates and pump prices, which is why running your own numbers beats relying on averages. It is the honest way to see whether the running cost savings of an EV are large or modest where you live. Nothing you enter leaves your device, since all math is done locally in your browser.
