An estimate — your real savings depend on your PG&E plan and charging times. A Level 2 charger at home is what makes cheap overnight charging possible. See the EV charger cost guide.

Public fast charging can cost as much as gas. The cheap overnight rate needs a dedicated Level 2 circuit at home — installed by a Tesla-certified C-10, sized so it never trips.
