EV Charging Cost Calculator
Calculate your electric vehicle charging costs based on electricity rates, battery capacity, and charging speed. Understand how different factors affect your EV charging expenses.
Step 1: Vehicle & Charger Details
Understanding EV Charging Costs
Charging costs depend on your electricity rate, battery capacity, and charging efficiency. Fast chargers are more expensive but charge quicker, while home charging is cheaper but slower.
Step 2: Cost & Efficiency
About Charging Efficiency
Charging efficiency accounts for energy lost during the charging process due to heat and conversion losses. Higher efficiency (90-95%) is typical for modern EVs, while older models might have lower efficiency (80-85%).

Charging Cost Analysis
Charging Cost Formula
Cost = (Battery Capacity × (Target% – Current%) / 100) × Electricity Rate / Efficiency
The charging cost is calculated based on the energy needed to reach your target charge level, adjusted for charging efficiency. Actual costs may vary based on time-of-use rates, charger availability fees, and regional electricity prices.
