How much does it cost to charge a Tesla at home?

 Charging a Tesla at home is generally much cheaper than filling up a gas car, but the exact cost depends on where you live, your electricity rate, your Tesla model, and how much you drive. (EnergySage)

🔌 Typical Home Charging Costs

In the United States

• Full charge cost (empty → full): about $12 – $43 USD depending on model and electricity rates. (EnergySage)

• Cost per mile: roughly 4 – 13 cents per mile. (EnergySage)

• Typical monthly cost (1,000 miles of driving): about $30 – $60 USD. (特斯拉计算器)

For example:

• A Model 3 or Model Y with a ~60 – 80 kWh battery might cost $8 – $16 to fill from near empty at average residential electricity prices (~$0.16/kWh). (特斯拉计算器)

In Canada

• Full charge at home: often $7 – $16 CAD for most Tesla models, but actual cost depends on the province’s electricity price. (Car Deal Canada)

  • For instance, in Ontario (~$0.14/kWh), a long‑range Tesla with ~79 kWh battery could cost ≈ $11–$12 CAD to fully recharge. (Car Deal Canada)

  • In Quebec (very low ~8–9¢/kWh) home costs can be under $8 CAD for a full charge. (Car Deal Canada)

Canadian owners can also save more by charging overnight during off‑peak hours when utilities often offer lower rates. (EV Drivee)

🧠 What Influences Home Charging Cost?

1. Electricity Rate (¢/kWh or $/kWh)

• Higher residential electricity prices make charging more expensive.

• Time‑of‑use plans (cheaper at night) can cut costs significantly. (EV Drivee)

2. Battery Size / Model

• Larger batteries (like on Model S/X) cost more to fill than smaller ones (Model 3/Y). (特斯拉计算器)

3. Charging Habits

• Charging partially (e.g., 20 → 80 %) for daily use costs less than a full 0 → 100 % charge.

🪙 Bottom Line Estimates

Region	Home Charge (Full Battery)	Typical Monthly (1,000 miles)
USA	~$12–$43 USD	~$30–$60 USD
Canada	~$7–$16 CAD	Depends on province & driving

💡 Why It’s So Cheap Compared to Gas

Electricity generally costs far less per mile than gasoline, so even a Tesla’s long‑range battery costs much less to “fill up” than a typical gas tank. (EnergySage)

If you want, I can calculate your approximate monthly charging cost based on:

• Your location (province/state)

• Your Tesla model

• Your average driving distance
