Prius fuel cost = $6,760 per 100,000 miles (50MPG $3.38/gallon which is average right now)

Leaf electricity cost = $3,944 per 100,000 miles (340Wh/mile $0.116/kWh which is average residential electricity right now)

Both have tires and wipers, but the Prius would cost about $2,500 per 100,000 miles ($50/5k, $150/15k, $450/30K miles)

Total difference is $5,316 per 100K miles.
