Tesla driver shares how much six months of electric cost and how much money it’s saved him on fuel

A Tesla owner has left other drivers green with envy after comparing the cost of fuel versus electricity to run his car

A Tesla driver has left other drivers green with envy after revealing how much money he’s saved paying for electricity opposed to fuel.

While fuel-running car owners have been able to snigger at those who leapt to buy a Cybertruck after the majority of the vehicles were recalled for the fourth time over a major fault, one Tesla driver has ultimately had the last laugh.

While many continue to debate whether or not to switch from cars which run on fuel to those which rely on electricity, one driver has already made the switch and has been reaping the benefits.

Tesla driver Bilal Sattar took to Twitter on 18 January to share his stats comparing how much it would’ve cost to run a car on fuel versus on electricity and subsequently just how much money he’s saved in the last six months.

He wrote: “Six months and roughly 10k miles I’ve spent only $573 to charge. An equivalent gas car at $4/gallon would have cost roughly $2400.”

So, in total, Sattar saved a whopping $1,800.

The screenshot he shared came from the Tesla app which offers a handy comparison between electric and fuel. Admittedly, this is a great way to ensure that new Tesla owners don’t get cold feet and consider switching back.

However, despite what it might appear, it isn’t as simple as electric charges costing less than fuel.

No, no, that would be a little too convenient.

Sattar himself gave the game away by explaining that he takes full advantage of any location that offer free charging.

Free chargers are rare and are often only in areas that are piloting new charging locations.

But while this is smart thinking, Sattar also has another key to his success.

A few months ago on his Twitter feed he shared an electric bill that shows he actually put wattage into the grid rather than taking it out.

There’s only really one way to do that for most people – solar panels. Lining your home with solar panels has long been a tactic for saving but it is only in the last few years that we have had the ingenuity to use that same energy to charge our electric vehicles.

Sattar could very much be a great ambassador of some of the possible benefits of using solar panels for your home, driving an electric vehicle and utilizing all free charging ports.

If it works, it works and who doesn’t want to save money?
