Formula
Use S = (fp−eq)D/100. f na fuel litres and e na electricity wey EV charging draw from power supply for kWh, both per 100 km; p na fuel price per litre, q na electricity price per kWh, and D na annual distance for km. S na annual energy-cost saving.
Compare energy costs for each distance and time to recover extra purchase cost.
