Gas vs. EVsavings.
See how much an electric car saves you versus gas — per year, per month and over 5 years — based on your real driving, fuel price and electricity rate.
How EV savings work
Electricity is usually far cheaper per kilometre than gasoline. Your savings depend on three things: how much you drive, the gap between fuel and electricity prices, and how efficient each vehicle is. This calculator multiplies your annual distance by each energy cost to show the real difference.

Questions, answered.
How much can an EV save per year?
It varies, but many drivers save $1,000-$2,500 per year in fuel, depending on distance driven and the gap between gas and electricity prices.
Does this include charging at home?
Yes — enter your home electricity rate (per kWh). Public fast-charging can cost more, which lowers the savings.
What is a typical EV efficiency?
Most EVs use roughly 15-20 kWh per 100 km. Larger SUVs and trucks use more.
