How much is it costing you?
When I plugged in via 110, it was under two bucks. It all depends on your electricity bill..... I use a lot of electricity, so rates reflect that. Not sure if the 240 volt makes any difference.

When I first got the EV, I was being a typical frugal Asian........plugged in at Brentwood, TD bank, Ikea, Canadian Tire, Lougheed Mall, etc. and it cost me nothing, LOL. BTW, I drive like a moffo in the EV, so I use a lot of energy. Like an ICE, you use up more energy going fast. If I drive normally, it would be so much cheaper. If I drove around town normally and not floor it, I would not have to charge for three days.

When I go to Richmond and back to North Burnaby, the range meter goes down just under 20%. In the winter, it was 25%.
