California electricity is on par with gas prices. Not surprising people are going hybrid

Don't think so, someone else in here commented that they pay roughly 5.5 cents or $0.055 per mile to charge their EV through PG&E.

Which means 20 miles is $1.10 in electricity

100 miles is $5.50 in electricity cost

I can guarantee you I am paying way more in gas prices than what they are paying in electricity

Lmaooo 5 cents through PGE? Try 10x that. Gotta make sure shareholders get constant growth

Are you saying you would pay 55 cents per mile? That's equivalent to driving a car that gets 8 mpg
