That's roughly around what I'm seeing as well as my electric is about the same rate. I'm in the midwest and gas is a little cheaper where I'm at, but it's still significantly cheaper to charge. Supercharging isn't too bad around me but I rarely ever use it. I did get to experience supercharging in California recently and it was probably as much or more than gas there which is probably why you see articles like this.

No one mentions oil either. I probably pay $100-150 a year to change the oil in my other ICE vehicle.

+ other maintenance costs that EVs don’t have to deal with (brakes, etc.)

EVs may have reduced use of the friction brakes, but I still wouldn't budget 0% to their maintenance ;)

don’t tires need to be replaced more often because batteries make the car heavier?
