This is the forbidden maths that EV manufacturers are scared of. I will risk my life to write it here. Let’s assume a generous 4.17 miles per kWh[1] EV efficiency and a 57 mpg [2] hybrid efficiency for a comparable nice Prius 2023.
57mpg/4.17mpkwh = 13.67 kWhpg. At the current average gas price of 3.15$/g [3], you need electricity rate below this price to beat hybrid: x < 3.15 $pg / 13.67 kWhpg
x < $0.23 per kWh.
Good luck beating hybrid with Super charger rates. With charging at home, your mileage will vary. In Southern California, where electricity rate at the top usage tier is closer to $0.50 per kWh including transmission, you are better off buying almost anything else but an EV.
Now, I will have to go into hiding to protect my life.
