The real question isn't which EV to buy. It's whether you can charge it without hassle, and what it will actually cost you. Answer five questions and get a straight answer.
Yes, if you can park in a driveway or carport near an outlet. Street parking is the hard case: without home or workplace charging, every mile comes from public fast chargers, which takes time and costs more.
Often, yes. A standard 120V outlet adds roughly 40 miles overnight, which covers the average American's daily driving. If you drive more than that most days, a Level 2 (240V) charger makes life much easier.
It works well if you can charge at your parking spot or at work. You'll need your landlord or HOA's approval for charging in a shared garage, and many states have right-to-charge laws that help renters and condo owners.
Charging at home, a driver covering the US average of about 35 miles a day pays roughly $60 to $80 a month at average electricity prices. Light driving in a cheap-power state can be closer to $30, while California or New England can top $100. Relying on public fast chargers costs about two to three times as much.
