Crunching the numbers


“How much does it cost to charge an electric car?”, “How do the running costs compare with petrol cars?”, “Can I power up at home?” These are all common questions our team get asked about going electric. Everyone knows it’s good for the planet, but did you know that it’s great for your wallet too? While the upfront costs can be higher, this handy calculator is a quick and easy way to compare EV and petrol/diesel running costs.

How does it work?


1. Simply select the size of your current car and the size of the electric vehicle you’re looking to buy.

2. Input your average yearly mileage.

3. Enter the average price you pay per kilowatt of electricity and the average cost per litre of fuel.

Our electric car vs petrol/diesel calculator will then compare the annual running costs to show you how much money you could save by switching to an EV! Please note, it doesn’t take into account other running costs such as vehicle price, maintenance and insurance.

So, whether you’re curious about your next car or ready to make the switch, this tool puts the future of driving at your fingertips. Let’s electrify your journey!

The fuel consumption or electric range achieved, and savings per year, in real world conditions will depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to: the accessories fitted (pre and post registration); the starting charge of the battery, variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load. Battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. The WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedures) is used to measure fuel consumption, electric range, and CO2 figures. Figures shown are for comparison purposes and should only be compared to the fuel consumption and electric range of other cars tested to the same technical standard.
