EV/Hybrid Calculator Site

[jeff_h]

This site was noted in a post on the Energi forum, I gave it a try and it was a handy way to compare estimated costs of four different vehicles. It appears to be aimed at EVs but there is a 'Car Manager' button that allows user to select four different cars of just about any make and model.

Link doesn't work? I'm getting a bad gateway error.

 

Sounds interesting.

I thought maybe I pasted in a bad URL but just checked it again and it worked OK for me using Firefox.

Thanks Jeff

 

I tried to click the link that didn't work in chrome. I just copied and pasted the link and that's working. At least sort of the website doesn't seem to like mobile devices.

 

Thanks for checking I will try this later.

Cool! Only $80,500 a year to commute 5 days a week from my home in Texas to my sisters home in Denver! Okay, that's the '02 Explorer Sport Trac. The MKZh would only cost $33,000/year. Good times! ;) :shift:

Too funny the result for the FFH on my daily commute is within $10 of the actual result which includes two road trips.

 

Very interesting website thanks for sharing.

Wow, $2100 difference on the F350 to the Fusion, though that seems low as well. Needs to be more customizable though. I can't input my true daily drive to Merango-Cary-my office to get a better view of fuel costs. My daily drive is over 90 miles a day, and I can only see 61 on this one. Whats interesting is my MKT is exactly twice what the fusion is.
