Kentucky home charging cost for the 2027 Rivian R1T Performance (20in)

In Kentucky, home electricity runs 14.37¢/kWh — put a 2027 Rivian R1T Performance (20in)'s EPA-rated 47 kWh/100mi against that and 100 miles costs $6.75, versus $16.02 for a gas car averaging 25.5 mpg. Charging at home is much cheaper than gas here: 57.9% 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 2027 Rivian R1T Performance (20in) costs roughly $1,013 a year to charge at home in Kentucky, against roughly $2,403 a year for an equivalent gas car. That's a savings of about $1,390 a year.

Filling up the 2027 Rivian R1T Performance (20in), in dollars

Covering the 2027 Rivian R1T Performance (20in)'s EPA-rated 348-mile range takes about 163.5 kWh, which costs about $23.5 at Kentucky'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 12,302 of 20,400 state/model pairs for cost savings against gas (1 is cheapest). The Rivian R1T Performance (20in) alone ranks 370 of 400 models for efficiency; Kentucky alone ranks 16 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.
