Indiana home charging cost for the 2026 Volkswagen ID.4
A 2026 Volkswagen ID.4 draws 29.8 kWh per 100 miles per the EPA; at Indiana's 17.11¢/kWh residential rate that's $5.1 per 100 miles charged at home, versus $16.02 for a 25.5-mpg gas car covering the same distance. Charging at home costs a fraction of what gas would here: 68.2% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

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.
