Delaware home charging cost for the 2026 Rivian R1S Quad Max (22in)

A 2026 Rivian R1S Quad Max (22in) draws 44.4 kWh per 100 miles per the EPA; at Delaware's 17.74¢/kWh residential rate that's $7.87 per 100 miles charged at home, versus $16.02 for a 25.5-mpg gas car covering the same distance. Charging at home is much cheaper than gas here: 50.9% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

Annual cost, at 15 thousands miles a year

At fueleconomy.gov's default of 15,000 annual miles, the 2026 Rivian R1S Quad Max (22in) costs roughly $1,181 a year to charge at home in Delaware, against roughly $2,403 a year for an equivalent gas car. That's a savings of about $1,222 a year.

What one full charge costs

Covering the 2026 Rivian R1S Quad Max (22in)'s EPA-rated 374-mile range takes about 166 kWh, which costs about $29.44 at Delaware's residential rate — figured from the EPA's own combined range and consumption numbers, not the pack's nameplate capacity.

Where this ranks

This combination ranks 14,845 of 20,400 state/model pairs for cost savings against gas (1 is cheapest). The Rivian R1S Quad Max (22in) alone ranks 350 of 400 models for efficiency; Delaware alone ranks 33 of 51 states for electricity price.

Next step: home charger installation

The numbers above assume Level 2 home charging is already in place — the electrical work behind that is a real, separate cost that varies by panel, wiring, and local labor rates, not something this page's per-mile math includes.

Ask a licensed Delaware electrician to quote the install before this math becomes a real decision.
