Charging session cost

A charging session starts with the battery percentage you have and ends at your target percentage. Charging efficiency accounts for wall-to-battery losses.

Monthly comparison

Monthly charging cost uses your driving distance and vehicle efficiency. The gas car comparison estimates what the same mileage would cost with the mpg and fuel price you enter.
