Home Charging Cost Calculator
Calculate your electric vehicle charging costs at home. Understand how electricity rates, vehicle efficiency, and charging patterns affect your expenses.
Step 1: Vehicle & Electricity Details
Understanding Charging Costs
Home charging costs depend on your electricity rate, vehicle efficiency, and charging habits. Off-peak charging and efficient driving can significantly reduce your expenses.
Step 2: Charging Patterns
About Charger Efficiency
Charging efficiency accounts for energy loss during the charging process. Level 2 chargers are typically 85-90% efficient, meaning about 10-15% of electricity is lost as heat during charging.

Charging Cost Breakdown
Charging Cost Formula
Cost = (Mileage ÷ Efficiency) × Electricity Rate
The charging cost is calculated by determining how much electricity is needed to cover your driving distance, then multiplying by your electricity rate. Actual costs may vary based on charging efficiency, temperature, and driving conditions.
