EV Road Trip Cost Calculator
Estimate the cost of an electric vehicle road trip based on distance, energy use, charging prices, and passengers.
Result
Estimated trip cost
—
Total electricity cost for the trip.
Energy used
—
Estimated total EV energy use.
Cost per passenger
—
Trip cost divided by passengers.
Estimated charging stops
—
Approximate number of charging stops.
Approximate estimate only. Real road trip costs depend on speed, weather, elevation, charger prices, charging losses, traffic, and battery temperature.
How we calculate
- Trip energy = distance ÷ 100 × EV consumption
- Home charging cost = home energy share × home electricity price
- Fast charging cost = remaining energy × fast charging price
- Charging stops are estimated from usable range between start charge and arrival buffer
