I realize I have a lot of time until delivery, but still curious about a few things. For reference, I've decided on the SR model (LR isn't needed).
I won't have access to charging at home (condo), and it's too expensive to put it in. I'll have to rely on charging stations. My issue is I'm trying to work out the costs. From what I read, the SR is going to be 220 miles range (354 km).
My commute is 39 km roundtrip, which means I'll have more than enough for a week of commuting. My plan is to charge on the weekends, here's my two options:
4.4km to a supercharging station
2.0km to an ikea
This is where I need help. Ikea, I believe, is free? but they have the slower charging, if I understand correctly. Does anyone know how long it would take from 0 to full at ikea? (I'm also curious if I can even use this, as I wouldn't be shopping there, I'd just be leaving it and getting it later unless it's a quick charge)
The Tesla supercharging station is a better further, but it has a cost. This is where I'm a bit confused. I'm in Ontario, and it says $0.20 up to 60 kw, $0.40 afterwards. How can I calculate this if I assume an empty battery again? (does the Kw refer to battery size?)
I'm just trying to find actual charging costs, to use as a comparison to what I'm currently paying in gas. Anyone that can help?
