District of Columbia home charging cost for the 2026 Fiat 500e

In District of Columbia, home electricity runs 24.54¢/kWh — put a 2026 Fiat 500e's EPA-rated 29.2 kWh/100mi against that and 100 miles costs $7.16, versus $16.02 for a gas car averaging 25.5 mpg. Charging at home is much cheaper than gas here: 55.3% 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 Fiat 500e costs roughly $1,074 a year to charge at home in District of Columbia, against roughly $2,403 a year for an equivalent gas car. That's a savings of about $1,329 a year.

What one full charge costs

Covering the 2026 Fiat 500e's EPA-rated 149-mile range takes about 43.5 kWh, which costs about $10.67 at District of Columbia's residential rate — figured from the EPA's own combined range and consumption numbers, not the pack's nameplate capacity.

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.
