A tesla owner I know recently mentioned saving money on fuel as a reason they love their car. I was curious about the difference and asked what they pay for the equivalent of a gas tank charge. They had no idea.

I have also heard it claimed by others that charging is much cheaper than gas, but they never back it up, it's just taken as a given.

Given the variance in both gas and electricity prices by time and region, the answer to which one costs less is almost certainly "it depends". Interesting that electricity being cheaper has largely become conventional wisdom.
