Kansas home charging cost for the 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco

At Kansas's residential electricity rate of 15.19¢/kWh, a 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco (rated 46.2 kWh per 100 miles by the EPA) costs $7.02 to drive 100 miles on home charging, against $16.02 for the same distance in a car averaging 25.5 mpg on gasoline at $4.085/gallon. Charging at home is much cheaper than gas here: 56.1% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

What a year of driving costs

At fueleconomy.gov's default of 15,000 annual miles, the 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco costs roughly $1,054 a year to charge at home in Kansas, against roughly $2,403 a year for an equivalent gas car. That's a savings of about $1,349 a year.

What one full charge costs

Covering the 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco's EPA-rated 256-mile range takes about 118.4 kWh, which costs about $17.98 at Kansas's residential rate — figured from the EPA's own combined range and consumption numbers, not the pack's nameplate capacity.

How this compares nationally

This combination ranks 13,131 of 20,400 state/model pairs for cost savings against gas (1 is cheapest). The Vinfast VF 8 Eco alone ranks 363 of 400 models for efficiency; Kansas alone ranks 20 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.
