Charging a 2026 Tesla Model X at home in Colorado

A 2026 Tesla Model X draws 32.2 kWh per 100 miles per the EPA; at Colorado's 16.65¢/kWh residential rate that's $5.36 per 100 miles charged at home, versus $16.02 for a 25.5-mpg gas car covering the same distance. That works out to 66.5% cheaper per mile than gasoline in Colorado — charging at home costs a fraction of what gas would here.

What a year of driving costs

What one full charge costs

At Colorado's rate, fully covering this 2026 Tesla Model X's 352-mile EPA range costs about $18.87 (113.4 kWh) — the energy the EPA test actually used, not the battery's rated size.

Before you install a home charger in Colorado
