In the context of the 'average' motorist, you're only going to do a few holiday road trips, and one 'vacation' a year.
Most charging will / can be from home.
'AOC's' BOLT is averaging over 130-mpg'e.
A one-time expense for off-peak, net metering hardware sets one up for, 5-cents/ kWh. Or $1.87/gallon-e, in April, 2022 dollars. That's 1.43-cents / mile.
Not a bad hat-trick.
