This vehicle did not use any gasoline for the first 25 miles in EPA tests. It may use gasoline depending on how you drive.

When fully charged, you will pay about 3.8¢ per mile for the first 25 miles you drive ($.95 for the electricity and $.00 for the gasoline).

After the first 25 miles, the vehicle will function like a regular hybrid and consume only gasoline, costing about 6.7¢/mile.

You will spend $.94 on electricity and $.00 on gasoline. This calculation assumes that your vehicle is fully charged when you begin your 25 mile trip and that you do not recharge during the trip.

Miles on a tank and refueling cost for gasoline only assumes 90% of fuel in tank will be used before refueling.

Personalized estimates are currently not available for this vehicle.
