I can tell you what a 200 mile trip cost me using home charging recently.
Model Y performance
200 miles total distance we pay 11.6 cents for a KWH.
The car used 62 % of its available charge to 96% which is 47 KWH to do the total distance
47 KWH X .116 = $ 5.45
I did the same trip a few weeks earlier with my Ram truck ( Cummins powered) It actually does exceptionally well on fuel usage
24 MPG 8.3 gallons diesel X $4.25 = $35.41
Almost 6 1/2 times the "fuel" cost.
