Try dividing the price of the car by the per-mile energy cost savings, to see what EV odometer reading amounts to break-even with ICE equivalent, and at what mile count the vehicle is free.

At current costs around here, a loaded Tesla 3 or Cybertruck will pay for itself by ~400,000 miles.

I’ve heard a rumor here in California, that Tesla is working with landlords to generate a home-recharging solution. What’s been happening is that people drive their electric vehicles home, recharge in the common areas which skyrockets the electric bill but for THEM, THEY don’t have to pay the cost. So landlords are closing off common area electrical outlets right and left.

Tesla has a solution that makes it so the electricity drain can be charged to the tenant. But it is not yet released because it’ll cause trouble in the marketplace.
