Virginia home charging cost for the 2026 Volvo EX40 Twin

In Virginia, home electricity runs 16.69¢/kWh — put a 2026 Volvo EX40 Twin's EPA-rated 36 kWh/100mi against that and 100 miles costs $6, versus $16.02 for a gas car averaging 25.5 mpg. Charging at home is much cheaper than gas here: 62.5% less than gas per mile, here specifically.

What a year of driving costs

At fueleconomy.gov's default of 15,000 annual miles, the 2026 Volvo EX40 Twin costs roughly $901 a year to charge at home in Virginia, against roughly $2,403 a year for an equivalent gas car. That's a savings of about $1,502 a year.

Cost of a full charge

Covering the 2026 Volvo EX40 Twin's EPA-rated 260-mile range takes about 93.5 kWh, which costs about $15.61 at Virginia's residential rate — figured from the EPA's own combined range and consumption numbers, not the pack's nameplate capacity.

How this compares nationally
