2027 Vinfast VF 8 Plus: home charging cost in New Mexico

In New Mexico, home electricity runs 14.82¢/kWh — put a 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Plus's EPA-rated 76.1 kWh/100mi against that and 100 miles costs $11.28, versus $16.02 for a gas car averaging 25.5 mpg. Charging at home is cheaper than gas here: 29.6% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

What a year of driving costs

Driving 15,000 miles a year — fueleconomy.gov's own default assumption — a 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Plus charged at home in New Mexico costs about $1,692/year in electricity, against about $2,403/year for the gas-car comparison. That's a savings of about $711 a year.

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.
