This man drove 50,000 miles and revealed his Tesla Model 3 costs
Many people are shifting from gas-powered cars to EVs due to a variety of different reasons, and one man decided to reveal how much driving a Tesla Model 3 for 50,000 miles really cost him.
YouTuber content creator Carmen Scuito judged the costs based on three factors – charging, maintenance, and insurance.
First up, he explored charging cost versus how much gas would have cost him, and since 2022, he revealed that he’s spent $2,840 by using a combination of Supercharging and at-home methods.
But, after calculating gas costs, the same period would have cost him a whopping $7.296, which means he saved $4,649.
Alongside charging costs, the gearhead also judged maintenance costs, and his Tesla Model 3 costs amounted to just $158, but after using ChatGPT to estimate the maintenance of a gas-powered car, he revealed he would have saved roughly $2,000.
Finally, he also estimated how much insurance would cost for a gas car versus his Tesla Model 3. Again, he used AI to estimate the cost, and he revealed he would have saved $1,349.04.
So, his total cost of owning a Tesla Model 3 after 52,000 miles came to $5,248,96, but he saved a whopping $7,998.04.
