Calculate your Wyoming EV vs gas costs

In Wyoming, gas averages about $4.33/gallon and home electricity about $0.13/kWh. Driving 13,000 miles a year, that's roughly $2,252 in gas versus about $497 to charge an EV at home — about $1,755/year before purchase price, maintenance, and resale.

The federal EV tax credit is now $0 (it ended for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025), so these numbers don't assume a $7,500 discount that no longer exists.

In Wyoming, home electricity averages about $0.13/kWh while gas runs around $4.33/gallon. At those prices, charging at home costs roughly a fraction of what it costs to fuel a comparable gas car per mile.* Whether an EV actually pays off for you depends on your annual miles, how long you keep the car, and the vehicle prices you compare — run your own numbers to see your break-even point.

* This is a general cost comparison based on average state electricity and gas prices, not a calculated break-even. Actual savings depend on your specific vehicles, mileage, charging mix, and how long you keep the car, and energy prices change over time. Use the calculator above for a result based on your real situation.
