Arizona ownership (energy only)

Arizona 5-year energy cost assumes 12,000 mi/yr, mostly home charging on APS R-EV overnight (11pm–5am weekdays) at $0.0847/kWh (APS R-EV tariff), ~10% charging losses, and compares energy only to a 28 MPG gas car at $3.50/gal. Insurance, maintenance, purchase price and resale are excluded. Arizona summer range = EPA range × 82.5% (Recurrent Auto ~17–18% loss at 100°F; AAA found 8.5% at 95°F).
