So, let's do the math: 6,700 kWh x 14 cents/kWh = $938. Enlarge Photo. Onsite service by Tesla Motor technicians on 2013 Tesla Model S, upstate NY [photo: David Noland]. Divide by 26,277, and my total fuel cost per mile works out to a remarkable 3.6 cents per mile.That's 20 percent less than the per-mile cost of the tires that carried me on all those miles.Tire costs vary. Not every Model S owner will have the same numbers, of course. It's possible to spend a lot more--or less--on both the tires and the electricity.MORE: Life With Tesla Model S: Battery Upgrade From 60 kWh To 85 kWh (Dec 2013).

Consider this: Regardless of its range, the typical EV right now, given an electricity cost of $0.10 per KW-h, will cost you about 3 to 4 cents per mile to drive. So, 100,000 miles will cost you somewhere in the neighborhood of $3000 to $4000. Let’s say I buy a Tesla Model S for $80k.lso, considering that the model S is quite heavy compared to most of the other EVs I’d guess that its average kWh/mile is noticeably higher than the others. Tesla Model S does 3.1 miles per kWh, Nissan Leaf does 3.4 miles per kWh, BMW i3 does 3.7 miles per kWh.

Enlarge Photo. 2013 Tesla Model S electric sport sedan [photo by owner David Noland]. At my local utility's rate of 14 cents/kWh, that works out to a total fuel cost for the year of $530, or about 3.4 cents/mile. Contrast that to about $3,000 and 20 cents/mile for a comparable car like the Mercedes S Class.But the Model S actually used more electricity than the 5,074 kWh on the car's energy meter.o cover 15,243 miles, I used 5,074 kWh of electricity, for an average of 333 watt-hours per mile. That's a bit better than the car's EPA-rated efficiency of 350 Wh/mi, and converts to precisely 3 miles per kWh. I used about 1,275 kWh of free Supercharger power on three long road trips totaling about 4,000 miles.

That brings total actual energy usage for the year: about 7,100 kWh--putting efficiency at about 466 Wh/mile, or about 2.1 miles/kWh. The vampire and charging losses bumped the year's real fuel cost up to $820, or about 5.3 cents per mile. Which is still barely a quarter of the fuel cost of a comparable gasoline car.o cover 15,243 miles, I used 5,074 kWh of electricity, for an average of 333 watt-hours per mile.

The official 265 mile range and $79,900 MSRP leads the survey at a cost of just $302 per mile, while the surprise runner-up is the Chevy Spark EV at $325 per mile, while the Nissan Leaf costs just over $350 for each mile.lso, considering that the model S is quite heavy compared to most of the other EVs I’d guess that its average kWh/mile is noticeably higher than the others.

Fuel cost per mile = (Fuel per 25 miles × cost of fuel) / 25 miles. Tesla Model S Fuel cost per mile = (9.5 kWh ×14.04¢ per kWh) / 25 miles = 5.33¢ per mile. Audi A7 Fuel cost per mile = (1.2 gal ×$4.031/gal) / 25 miles = 19.35¢ per mile.Savings per mile = 14.01¢ per mile.esla fuel cost to drive per mile: $0.0374. Mazda 3 fuel cost to drive per mile: $0.1233. Savings per mile for Tesla: $0.0859. then you can factor in the other things like oil changes, etc (but not tires as both cars have those). I hope this helps.

The Tesla Roadster is a battery electric vehicle (BEV) sports car produced by the electric car firm Tesla Motors in California between 2008 and 2012.The Roadster is the first highway-capable all-electric vehicle in serial production for sale in the United States in recent times.ccording to the U.S. EPA, the Roadster can travel 244 miles (393 km) on a single charge of its lithium-ion battery pack, and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) in 3.7 or 3.9 seconds depending on the model.

After I bought the first set of replacement tires for my 2013 Tesla Model S (at 26,000 miles), I crunched the numbers and came to a startling conclusion: I've spent substantially less per mile for my electric fuel than I have for my tires.hat's 20 percent less than the per-mile cost of the tires that carried me on all those miles. Tire costs vary. Not every Model S owner will have the same numbers, of course. It's possible to spend a lot more--or less--on both the tires and the electricity.

HTT estimates the cost will be $100 million. $100 million -- that's about $20 million per mile, or only about 26% more than the per-mile cost embedded in Musk's original estimate of $6 billion for 380 miles.It's nowhere near the $263 million per mile cost embedded in Prof. Anderson's estimate.TT estimates the cost will be $100 million. $100 million -- that's about $20 million per mile, or only about 26% more than the per-mile cost embedded in Musk's original estimate of $6 billion for 380 miles.
