38$ for the day is actually more significant than I thought.



Compare that to gasoline at ~$104 to fill a tank of gas on an Audi Q5 (rough equivalent of a Model Y. It has an 18.5G tank and premium gas is $5.65 here). The Q5 does get far more range though. Something like 450+ miles vs the 330 of the Model Y.

Maybe it is better to judge how many miles a dollar gets you? 8 miles per dollar for the Model Y vs 4.3 miles per dollar for the Q5.

If you charge at home during off-peak hours, like most people do, the numbers get a ton better.
