Stuart Energy

Volkswagen ID.3 Pro, 20→80%, fast DC.

Your car charges at up to 120 kW, so at a pricier HPC charger (150 kW and above) you would pay for speed it cannot use — a fast DC charger is enough.

Shows the price of electricity only, at the network’s typical price per kWh including VAT. Networks marked “+ time / session fee” also charge for charging time, parking or the session — the amount shown for them is a minimum, not the final price. Cost per 100 km — based on the selected car’s average consumption. Real-world consumption is higher in winter: according to research by the US company Recurrent, EVs keep about 78% of their usual range at around 0 °C. Prices updated .

How the charging cost is calculated

The kilowatt-hours charged are the battery capacity multiplied by the change in charge level. For example, a 60 kWh battery charged from 20% to 80% takes 36 kWh. The cost is those kilowatt-hours multiplied by the network’s price per kWh.

In practice the total can be slightly higher because of charging losses (about 5–10% at AC chargers, less at DC) — you pay for the energy delivered by the charger, not the energy stored in the battery. Also remember that fast DC charging slows down sharply above 80%, so on trips people rarely charge to full.

Cost per 100 km is the car’s average consumption (kWh/100 km) multiplied by the price per kWh. For example, a car using 15 kWh/100 km covers 100 km for €6 at a charger priced at €0.40/kWh. Real-world consumption is higher in winter: according to research by the US company Recurrent, EVs keep about 78% of their usual range at around 0 °C. (source)

Charge a lot at public chargers? Check whether a charging subscription is worth it (in Lithuanian) — from how many kWh a month the networks’ plans pay off.

Charge at home? Compare which is cheaper: charging at home or at a station (in Lithuanian) — using today’s exchange price, network fees and VAT.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to drive 100 km in an EV? ▾

The Volkswagen ID.3 Pro uses 16.6 kWh/100 km on average, so 100 km costs: at a slow AC charger (at €0.30/kWh) — about €4.98, at a fast DC charger (at €0.36/kWh) — about €5.98, at an ultra-fast HPC charger (at €0.387/kWh) — about €6.42. That is consumption (kWh/100 km) multiplied by the price per kWh. Real-world consumption is higher in winter: according to research by the US company Recurrent, EVs keep about 78% of their usual range at around 0 °C. Select a car in the calculator to see what 100 km costs at each network.

How much does a full charge cost? ▾

It is the battery capacity in kilowatt-hours multiplied by the price per kWh. For example, a 60 kWh battery would cost about €18.00 at an AC charger at €0.300/kWh, about €21.60 at a fast DC charger at €0.360/kWh and about €23.22 at an ultra-fast HPC charger (150 kW and above) at €0.387/kWh. In practice people rarely charge to 100%: fast charging slows down sharply above 80%, so on trips the usual stop is from 20% to 80%.

Why does the calculator show only the price of electricity? ▾

Because only that depends directly on the kilowatt-hours charged. A fee for charging time, parking or the session depends on how fast your car charges and how long you occupy the charger, so the total cannot be worked out exactly in advance. Networks that charge such fees are marked in the list — the amount shown for them is a minimum, not the final price.

How much cheaper is charging at home? ▾

Almost always much cheaper: at home you pay your household electricity tariff without the cost of public infrastructure. Public chargers are needed for trips and for people who cannot charge at home. This calculator compares public charging networks only.

Do the prices include VAT? ▾

Yes, all prices shown include VAT. They come from the official Via Lietuva open data feed and are indicative — the operator sets the final price.
