Your car

What your car earned and cost in September 2026

Pick a model and how far you drive. We use the ERE price and the electricity price of September 2026, as if they held for a year, with every kWh charged at home. Consumption: the WLTP value per model (EEA), or 18.7 kWh per 100 km for a typical car. ERE only counts with a charger that has a built-in MID meter.
