"The cost of charging an electric vehicle (EV) at a public charger is now lower on average than petrol or diesel for the first time in over a year, according to new figures. Steep rises in the price of petrol and diesel since the war in Iran began have meant that using on-street chargers to power an EV is cheaper per mile than traditional fuel."
"Industry body Charge UK's analysis shows that when using a standard charger at the national average cost of 54p per kWh, drivers can expect to pay around 15p per mile. This is compared with a current rate of 17p for a typical petrol car or 17.5p for diesel."
The cost of charging an electric vehicle (EV) at public chargers has become cheaper than petrol or diesel for the first time in over a year. Rising fuel prices due to geopolitical events have contributed to this shift. Analysis shows that using standard chargers costs around 15p per mile, while petrol and diesel vehicles cost 17p and 17.5p per mile, respectively. Home charging remains the most economical option, while exclusive use of ultra-rapid charging still results in higher costs compared to traditional fuels.
