We have solar panels so as long as we charge during daylight using our level 2 charger ( ~ 3 to 4 hours to fully charge), the 50,000 to 70,000 miles of gasoline costs to breakeven falls away. This is for the 2024 Kia Sportage X-line Prestige we just purchased. However, when charged on 120V house current at night, it takes ~ 27 hours and draws 0.6kWH while charging. As such, and with electricity at 14 cents per kWH and gasoline prices at $3.09 per gallon, and 42 mpg average fuel consumption so far ( only have 287 miles on car) it costs the same in either electric utility charges as gasoline to drive 34 miles.
