Cheaper to Drive Gas-Powered Car 100 Miles than Average Electric Car
John Nolte
Thanks to skyrocketing electricity prices, it now costs more to drive the average electric vehicle 100 miles than it does to drive a gas-powered car the same distance.
A report from the Anderson Economic Group (AEG) shows that driving a gas-powered car 100 miles costs an average of $11.29. However, the cost for people who drive electric vehicles and charge up at home is $11.60 per hundred miles. A little more expensive.
But.
For those electric car owners who use recharging stations, the average cost for 100 miles is substantially higher at $14.40.
But at least you’re saving the planet, right?
Oh, wait, you’re not saving the planet because most of the “clean” electricity you use to charge your eco-car comes from burning fossil fuels…so lol.
