Not in California.

Many people charge exclusively at superchargers and pay $42+ for 250 miles of range ($0.60+/kWh peak hours after work).

That’s 6-8 gallons in an ICE car. At $5/gallon this makes EV supercharging more expensive than gasoline.

When buying an ev, knowing you can charge at home should be part of your decision.

Also, I've never seen 60 cents a kWh at a supercharger in California. 50 cents, plenty of times. But that's the most I've seen. Maybe that's some specific part of LA or something.

Based on how PG&E is pricing things I suspect prices are only going sharply upwards from here. They pretty much hold the state hostage at this point. “Give us more money or we can’t guarantee that we wont accidentally burn down rural towns in the Sierra foothills.”
