    Are you saying it is something between £15 and £50?

    At £50 l, that’s more than my wife’s car is to fill up, and would let it run for 400 miles or so. Are those numbers accurate because that’s wild that electricity costs as much as petrol.

      Recharging a Tesla 3 at home comes to just under £30 by my calculations

        Dang electricity must be expensive AF over there. Where I’m at in the US I pay $0.04/kWh (super off peak) and can fill up 0-100% (75kw) like 3 times for only $11 (£8.61)

          It is very expensive here at the moment. Wholesale electricity prices went though the roof last winter, largely due to Western Europe’s erliance on Russian gas

          7.5p/kwh overnight with an EV tariff on octopus. Even non-EV tariff night rates are like 17p/kwh.
