What would this cost you each year?

Compare it with what you run now. We assume 5 days a week and 50 weeks a year.

Servicing and insurance are indicative figures for this type of vehicle, not quotes. Advertised fuel figures assume a charged battery, so we use the low-battery figure once the charge runs out. Depreciation includes $5,000 for an AC charger and install. Tax and finance interest aren’t included. Change more assumptions, or check your site and power bill.
