Do they pay to plug in and charge?

Yep. Well, some of the earlier buyers got free lifetime charging but most of us pay to play. :).

What is your cost per km for energy in day to day use?

Well, life time kilometres per kWh for our leaf after 4 and a bit years was 6.4 kilometres per kWh. We pay 9 cents per kWh. There was no other maintenance other than washer fluid in four years.

We haven’t tracked the Tesla but I’m told it’s more efficient. We have had it a little over a year. Same thing. Only washer fluid for maintenance.

Superchargers are about 3 times as expensive as charging at home. They are generally only used on road trips. The vast majority of charging is done at home or work.

Hope that helps.
