Cost Of Electric Vehicles Have Dropped To $0.28/mile

Introduction

Driving an electric car is becoming cheaper, thanks to improvements in battery technology and decreasing gas prices. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory have found that the average cost of driving an electric vehicle was $0.33/mile in 2017, but by 2040 it could fall to $0.20/mile. The researchers studied data from six countries as well as changes in battery technology and production scale-up to predict how much people will be paying for their cars’ electricity over time. They found that gas prices were a major factor in determining how much people would pay to drive their cars — but not the only one. Here are some other factors they considered:

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory have found that the cost of driving electric vehicles is $0.28/mile. This is a significant drop from 2017, when it was estimated to be around $0.40/mile.

This means that it’s now cheaper for consumers to drive an EV than it is for them to buy gas or diesel-powered cars–which can save drivers up to $10,000 per year in fuel costs alone!

The researchers studied data from 2017, when the average cost to drive an electric vehicle was $0.33/mile. That number is expected to decrease significantly over the next two decades as gas prices continue to rise and more people buy EVs.

The study also found that drivers with access to public charging stations pay less than those without them. This makes sense–if there’s no need for you to charge at home every night because you can stop at one of many public charging stations along your commute or while running errands, then all those miles saved add up quickly!

They used data from six countries that had more than 1 million electric vehicles in 2018 to predict that by 2040, the average cost will be $0.20/mile.

Gas prices are volatile and can change quickly, but there are other factors at play as well. For example, the cost of electricity does not fluctuate as much as gas prices do. This means you’ll likely be paying less for electricity than you would be if you were driving an internal combustion engine vehicle (ICE).

In addition to gas prices, the researchers looked at changes in battery technology, battery prices and production scale-up.

In addition to gas prices, the researchers looked at changes in battery technology and production scale-up. They found that battery prices have fallen by 80{a5ecc776959f091c949c169bc862f9277bcf9d85da7cccd96cab34960af80885} since 2010 and are expected to keep falling as more companies enter the market. In addition, they also noted that battery technology is improving: lithium-ion batteries have improved their energy density (the amount of energy they can store per unit weight) by almost 50{a5ecc776959f091c949c169bc862f9277bcf9d85da7cccd96cab34960af80885} since 2007, while nickel metal hydride batteries’ energy density has increased by 10{a5ecc776959f091c949c169bc862f9277bcf9d85da7cccd96cab34960af80885}.

Driving electric cars is becoming cheaper with time

The cost of driving an electric car is falling. That’s because more people are buying them and battery technology is improving, which means that the batteries themselves are getting cheaper.

Electric cars cost about $0.28 per mile to drive in the US–that’s less than half as much as gasoline-powered cars, according to a recent analysis from Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF). That figure will drop even further over time: BNEF predicts that by 2030, EVs will be nearly three times cheaper than traditional vehicles (and four times cheaper by 2040).

Conclusion

The study found that electric cars are becoming more affordable for people around the world. This is especially true for those who live in countries where gas prices are high and electricity is cheap, such as China and India.
