Chevy Equinox EV: charging cost vs gas
We've set the Chevy Equinox EV as your EV below. Pick the gas car you'd compare against, set your prices and miles, and see the real cost difference — and the break-even.
Efficiency 3.2 mi/kWh
EPA range 315 mi
From ~$35,000
Typical gas rival 27 mpg
The Equinox EV aims squarely at mainstream gas crossovers, with a modest price and ~3.2 mi/kWh efficiency. Against a 27-mpg gas crossover, it cuts fuel cost per mile sharply while keeping the premium small enough to recover in a reasonable time.
It's pitched as the affordable family EV, and the running-cost math reflects that — solid savings without a luxury sticker.
What to keep in mind
- Mainstream price keeps the EV premium (and payback time) low.
- ~3.2 mi/kWh beats a typical gas crossover comfortably on fuel cost.
- Best value with home charging and average-or-higher annual mileage.
