Curiousity: what is your electricity bill after charging EV at home? how much does it change before and after plugging in? Still cheaper than refueling?

So VW basically built a car that is supposed to last. Not surprising, they don’t want to replace millions of them because they get lower than the advertised 70 % SOH after eight years of use. That it outperforms that goal and is expected to be at 80 % is a testament to that. I am surprised that highway driving accelerates the battery aging by 16 %. That might explain why VW so far refuses to release actual long distance cars in the lower price ranges – by going with comparatively low ranges (around 300 km) they force customers to stick to shorter trips and more AC charging, making the warranty goals that much more approachable.
It will be interesting to see how the Ioniq 5 handles degredation over time. It’s designed to be DC charged.
