Mobilität: Strom statt Benzin – wie viel spart ein E-Auto beim Tanken ein?
Durch den Iran-Krieg sind die Spritpreise nach wie vor auf Höchstniveau. Wie viel lässt sich durch Laden statt Tanken einsparen? Der Handelsblatt-Rechner zeigt es.
Fuel prices are reaching new heights daily, with rising costs due to the Iran war and the subsequent blockade of a key shipping route, the Hormuz Strait. A liter of E10 gasoline recently hit a record high of 2.286 euros in the nationwide daily average, according to the ADAC. Diesel was only four cents cheaper at 2.412 euros per liter.
For drivers considering a new vehicle, a new question arises: How much money could they save with an electric car right now? The Handelsblatt has created a calculator to track the annual savings between charging an electric vehicle and refueling a gasoline-powered one. To use it, you simply choose the number of kilometers driven, the fuel consumption of the gasoline car and the electric vehicle of your choice, and a year as a basis for fuel and electricity prices.
As a rough estimate, a Tesla Model Y consumes about 16 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per 100 kilometers, while a Mercedes CLA Coupé uses around 13 kWh, and a BMW iX3 50 xDrive uses about 16 kWh.
