Not really. The US average Tesla Supercharger price is $0.28 per kWh. For a Model 3 Long range that would be about $0.075 cents per mile assuming 10% charging loss. That is equal to about 34 mpg at current gasoline prices. (The national average for unleaded in $2.56 per gallon)

Using public chargers kills a huge cost benefit of EVs.
