Cost per year is miles per year divided by the EPA combined rating, times your fuel price; electric vehicles use the EPA's kWh per 100 miles instead. Plug-in hybrids blend electricity and gasoline by the EPA utility factor, the share of miles the EPA expects on battery power. Rounded to the nearest $10. Your prices are kept in this browser only.
