I also don't like how Tesla is using $10k over 5 years as gas savings. I understand why they are doing it -- since its better to compare the cost of the car and the fuel when cross-shopping an EV with an ICE. But the fixed $10k doesn't take into account variation between cars, regions, etc.
Before I ordered a couple years ago, I made an estimate of the fuel savings. I kept MPG logs for my cars, and used 2.5 years from my previous car as a proxy for the estimates. During those 2.5 years, I averaged 23.1MPG, spent an average of $194/month on gas at an average price of $3.55/gallon, and drove an average of 12.5k miles per year. I also estimated I'd use 426 kWh in the Tesla, which would cost me ~$30/month for the same mileage using my overnight TOU rate (a hair under 7 cents per kWh fully loaded). So I was estimating $164/month in savings, which is $1,968 per year -- and pretty close to Tesla's $2k/year average.
So what am I seeing after almost 2 years (I'm about 6 weeks shy of my 2 year anniversary delivery…)? I'm driving more miles -- I'm just shy of 35k miles in 22.5 months. But about 7k of those miles were road trips mostly on Supercharger or other no-cost charging, so I've charged ~28k miles at home , which is still ~15k miles per year and higher than my previous car. I compared our electric bills from before getting the Tesla to after, and my estimate of ~$30/month to charge was just about spot on (even with the extra miles). But gas prices have fallen -- so I'd say my savings are closer to $100 a month, not $160… Its still savings, but at a $6k run rate, not $10k!
