How Much EV Charging vs. Pumping Gas Saves in Each State

Although EV prices tend to be higher than traditional gas vehicles, over time, you can save big by making the switch to electric. According to Payless Power, over 10 years, driving a gas-powered vehicle costs an average of $11,053 more than driving an EV charged at home.

The actual savings will vary by state, as each state has different gas and electricity prices. To find out how much EV drivers save in every state, Payless Power compared local gasoline, at-home EV charging and public charging prices.

Here’s a look at the cost difference between driving gas-powered and electric cars over 10 years in every state.
