Charging Your Tesla Model S At Home: How Much Will It Cost You? – SlashGear

Determining how much it will cost to charge your Model S depends on factors like the charging level, location, and cost per kWh. The Tesla Model S has a standard Type 2 AC charging port that accepts up to 16.5 kW, replenishing the 100 kWh battery pack in about seven hours. Despite the wait, it will cost about $13 at a charging rate of $0.13, although rates could vary. Meanwhile, it would cost around $30 at a public AC charging station using a cost per kWh of $0.30.

Of course, people buy Teslas because of the brand’s Supercharger network of DC fast-charging stations, a proprietary solution that recharges any Tesla in record time. For example, the Tesla Supercharger could deliver up to 250 kWh of juice, replenishing a Model S from 10% to 80% in around 30 minutes. At a cost per kWh of $0.50, it would cost about $50 (and change) to seal the deal.

In addition, Tesla has a handy charging calculator that would give potential buyers a general overview of the charging costs. Tesla claims that if you drive your Model S for 100 miles on a daily basis, it will cost $4.33 per day to keep your vehicle fully charged.
