EV Charging Cost Calculator

Full-charge cost and time for any EV.

Enter your EV's battery size, the electricity price per kWh, and your charger's power to see the cost of a full charge and how long it takes. It assumes a full 0–100% charge; most drivers top up from 20–80%, which is faster and cheaper on the battery.

How it's calculated

Cost = battery size (kWh) × price per kWh; charging time = battery size ÷ charger power (kW).

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate EV charging cost?

Multiply battery size by your electricity price. A 60 kWh battery at $0.25/kWh costs $15.00 for a full charge — our calculator does it instantly.

How long does it take to charge an EV?

Divide battery size by charger power. A 60 kWh battery on an 11 kW home charger takes about 5.5 hours; a 150 kW fast charger does it in under half an hour.

Is home or public charging cheaper?

Home charging is usually the cheapest per kWh. Public fast chargers cost more but save hours — compare both with this calculator before a long trip.
