SoCal charging $$

[SoCalNick]

Can someone tell me how much it is to charge your Model Y in So California?

I have unlimited on my Model S, and my buddy is looking to buy a Y and wants to know.
I was estimating $25 for a full charge, for 300 miles - is that accurate?

Thanks.

Well nobody really drives to 0% before charging, especially on a day to day use. With gas cars I fill to 100% and drive until the Empty light. But with my Tesla, I will only charge to 90% and drive until about 50% before recharging.

For pricing the cost varies. At home in LA, its about 20cent/kWh whereas a supercharger will be a little pricier. About 28cents/kWh. So for a hypothetical 100% charge it would cost $14-20

edit: Also, realistically I get 275 miles range on the MY battery, not 300 miles.

It varies somewhat but I think average is $0.28/KWH and the battery is 75KWH. That's inbetween LADWP's Tier 2 and Tier 3 pricing of $0.23 and $0.32 so it's basically "market price" for electricity and not more or less expensive (I know I know you should have a separate TODU meter or solar at home but assuming you just pay standard rates).

Also be sure you send him a referral it'll give him 400kWh of free supercharging so a little head start.

You can get the pricing for each SuperCharger, as they are slightly different from each other,
and the cost got recently updated to $.32 to $.36, using the Display map inside your Model S.

Using A Better Routeplanner you can evaluate the cost of your trip and each leg, here is an example:

Someone here had calculated 275wh/mile. Based on that I figured that it will cost $51 a month if I drive 15k miles per year at $.16 KWH for SCE TOU PRIME.

SDGE super off peak TOU EV is $0.09 / kwh.

I'm enjoying that Note that there is also a $16 fixed monthly fee.

BTW: for some reason I was able to change my rate to EV-TOU5 before my previous 1-year commitment was completed. Not sure if it was a fluke. I applied for it online after completing the application for the SDG&E Limited EV Purchase Credit.

Forgot about the fee unless you get a second meter (which I did not do).
