"I can't help but feel that this post smacks of 'look at how much money I have to spend', I may be wrong but that's how this reads to me"
Really wasn't meant in that way what-so-ever. It was just to see if there were any fellow drivers as always meeting people when charging and thought it could be a time for a good social. |

I take it that is £750 of electricity, I make that 18.75p per mile if my maths is correct. |

So it's more expensive than petrol?  |

I thought he meant that would have cost £750 in petrol. |

So it sounds like you spend a lot of time charging the thing then?  |

Perhaps he did mean £750 worth of petrol but that wiuld be dependent on engine size and which car he was refering to please clarify OP |

If my 4x4 cost £750 for 4000 miles I'd bin it immediately.
They sound a load of overpriced garbage to me.  |

£750 @ £1.30/litre (assuming diesel)
= 577 litres = 128 gallons
4000/128 = 31.25MPG which is about right for a large car/4x4. This is 19p per mile if you ignore the overly optimistic manufacturer claims.
Anyway, I have an electric car (no, not a Tesla) and I get lots of people chatting to me when I am at charging points. Sadly it is always guys or middle age couples.
For reference, my car costs about 3p per mile but I often charge for free so less than that if I do.
I've no idea about Teslas but the op is probably saving at least £5k a year on fuel alone and that is assuming no charging at the free superchargers, not to mention cheaper servicing, no road tax and other savings.
Electric cars cost a bit more than their traditional counterparts but not as bad as it first seems. |
