Charging cost examples in pounds sterling
Compare 20% to 80% charging estimates at the same illustrative £0.30/kWh price, with battery sources and version details for each model.
Home vs public charging costs
For a 60 kWh battery, a 20% to 80% charge adds 36 kWh. At a hypothetical home tariff of £0.30/kWh, that costs £10.80. At a hypothetical public tariff of £0.60/kWh, the same battery energy costs £21.60.
These fixed GBP examples are not current UK average prices and exclude charging losses and additional fees. Compare your own home and public rates by entering each price in the calculator for the same model and charge range.
Battery energy and billed energy
Battery energy = capacity × (target charge − starting charge) ÷ 100. The calculator multiplies that energy by your price per kWh. Your charger may bill more energy: if 10% of metered energy is lost, 36 kWh in the battery needs 36 ÷ 0.90 = 40 kWh from the charger. This loss percentage is an example, not a vehicle-specific measurement. Also check any session, parking or subscription fees.
