2026 Tesla Model S: home charging cost in Florida
In Florida, home electricity runs 15.36¢/kWh — put a 2026 Tesla Model S's EPA-rated 27.1 kWh/100mi against that and 100 miles costs $4.17, versus $16.02 for a gas car averaging 25.5 mpg. Charging at home costs a fraction of what gas would here: 74% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

Before you install a home charger in Florida
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 Florida electrician to quote the install before this math becomes a real decision.
