North Dakota 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 North Dakota's 12.19¢/kWh residential rate that's $3.63 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: 77.3% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

Annual cost, at 15 thousands miles a year

What one full charge costs

Covering the 2026 Volkswagen ID.4's EPA-rated 291-mile range takes about 86.7 kWh, which costs about $10.56 at North Dakota's residential rate — figured from the EPA's own combined range and consumption numbers, not the pack's nameplate capacity.

Before you install a home charger in North Dakota

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 North Dakota electrician to quote the install before this math becomes a real decision.

Where these figures come from

The methodology guide names the exact EIA and EPA tables behind this page's numbers. North Dakota is one of the cheapest states for home electricity — the guide to why the cost varies so much by state covers what drives that.
