So my 1,750 miles / month would add 530kWh/ month. Bringing my total use to 1,155 kWh/ month. $145/ month including the line fee. So throwing out the line fee, the feel good method would show that the "car" used at $0.111/ kWh but the REALITY of the bill for that month would still be $0.126/ kWh. Most people probably don't drive 1,750 miles/ month so the reduction in rate from what they were paying before the electric car as they ameliorate the line fee would be less than my example. From $0.14 to $0.13 say
