If I were to get an EV (Tesla), it would be a second car and only used to commute to work and back. I would expect to put only a few thousand miles a year on it.
I think that I saw where the average Tesla was used 8.4 miles/day, Monday thru Friday. It’s a commuter vehicle (second car) for those that can afford it.
Doesn’t ones electric bill go up from charging the car?
Do charging costs compare to A/C?
And, does the electricity come from solar or a wind unit?
So how much gas is being saved by these short trips? Enough to buy a new battery pack?
