What 1,000 miles costs to charge

Home charging at the average residential rate for each state. This is the number most EV comparisons leave out — they quote a national average and call it done.

Cheapest of the seven: North Dakota at $24.06 per 1,000 miles. Most expensive: California at $78.35. Same car, same miles — 3.3× the difference.

State ¢/kWh 1,000 mi 12,000 mi
North Dakota 8.91 $24.06 $288.68
Louisiana 9.86 $26.62 $319.46
New Mexico 10.08 $27.22 $326.59
Arizona 15.26 $41.20 $494.42
Rhode Island 25.34 $68.42 $821.02
Massachusetts 26.42 $71.33 $856.01
California 29.02 $78.35 $940.25

Electricity: EIA average residential price, year-to-date through August 2026. Rates vary by utility and by plan — your bill is not this number.

Next step

Charging at home is only half the bill. A Level 2 outlet costs money to install, and that install price depends on your panel and your state — not on the car.
