This 60% charge costs $8.43 at home.

  • At home you spend $8.43 to add 47.4 kWh and about 182 miles of range.
  • Your estimated annual charging bill is $643, or about $54 per month.
  • Supercharger sessions cost 2.1x more per kWh than home charging - minimizing Supercharger use cuts your charging bill significantly.
  • Home charging works out to $0.046 per mile, compared to around $0.10-$0.15 per mile for a typical gasoline car.

Next stepSet up time-of-use (TOU) charging in your Tesla app to charge only during off-peak hours, which can cut your home rate by 30-50% in many utility territories.
