A California-based owner of a 2018 Tesla Model 3 has shared a detailed analysis of vehicle ownership costs after driving the electric car for seven years and covering 265,000 kilometers. The report aims to determine whether electric vehicles remain more cost-effective than internal combustion engine alternatives over long-term usage periods.
The owner documented all expenses incurred during the seven-year period to provide a comprehensive comparison of maintenance and operational costs. The findings included a comparison with a BMW, highlighting differences in total expenditure between the electric vehicle and the traditional combustion model.
The analysis seeks to address common questions regarding the financial viability of electric vehicles when held for extended durations rather than short-term lease or ownership cycles. The data provided by the owner offers insights into the long-term depreciation, charging costs, and maintenance requirements associated with the Tesla Model 3.
