I must first state that I know nothing about electricity and the charging rates of EVs. I have owned three MS and bought my wife a MY.
My S has always been charged with a 220 line I had installed. My wife's Y is charged with a 120 line as the slow charging rate doesn't affect her as much as she drives less than me each day.
My car will charge 75-80miles in a couple of hours, while my wife will only get 35-40 miles over ten hours.
As we recently signed up for ComEd Hourly pricing I have more closely been watching electricity rates.
So, my question is - what uses more electricity? The model S or model Y? Or put another way - Does it cost more to charge 80 miles on my S for three hours or 35 miles on the Y for ten hours?
Hopefully this all is clear and thanks for any help!
