Clear calculations.
Open assumptions.
Current helps drivers estimate electric vehicle charging costs, charging time, and energy savings. Our calculations run in your browser and the example results are included in the page.
Our data
Vehicle data comes from the US EPA. State electricity prices come from the US Energy Information Administration. Each record includes a source and date. Unverified values are shown as pending, never replaced with a guessed specification.
How estimates work
Charging costs account for electricity prices and configurable losses. EPA grid consumption already includes charging losses. Charging time assumes constant power and uses the lower of charger power and the vehicle's AC or DC limit. The comparison includes energy and fuel costs only.
