Home charging at each state's average residential electricity price (EIA, August 2026). A full charge means 0–100% using the EPA's combined consumption, which includes charging losses; most owners charge to 80–90%, which costs proportionally less. Public fast charging usually costs more per kWh. Version shown: 2015–present, longest EPA range.
