What is happening? The Florida Sentinel used a Vehicle Cost Calculator website operated by the U.S. Department of Energy to determine the cost per week of an EV, a hybrid and a gas vehicle. The least cost per week? The EV.
Why is this important? The all-electric Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus rear-wheel drive cost $5.40 per week. The plug-in hybrid, Honda Clarity, cost $6.99 per week (in the test, the hybrid never needed its gas reserve). The traditional hybrid, Toyota Avalon XLE Hybrid was $20 per week and did access its gas reserve. The gas-only Lexus ES 250 consumed eight gallons a week at a cost of $34.40 per week.
How will this be important? The impact of rising gas prices on the EV sales market.
