2026 Toyota bZ AWD LIMITED: home charging cost in Texas

A 2026 Toyota bZ AWD LIMITED draws 28.9 kWh per 100 miles per the EPA; at Texas's 16.11¢/kWh residential rate that's $4.66 per 100 miles charged at home, versus $16.02 for a 25.5-mpg gas car covering the same distance.

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.

Ask a licensed Texas electrician to quote the install before this math becomes a real decision.
