0.49p, gets around 4 mi/kWh.

ChatGPT reckons this gives 7.6p/km when petrol would be 9-12.

Obviously it could be cheaper, but it’s still pretty good for us. We’re not using it for commuting or anything though.

So just a ~£400/yr saving at 10,000 miles, excluding capital investment (assuming 40mpg, £1.45/L). Though if you just do stop-start in London 30 mpg would be more accurate, so ~£1,000/yr in savings.

How much was your car (or, more usefully, how much is the depreciation per year)?
