Цахилгаан автомашин эзэмших нь түлшний зардлыг хэмнэх эсэх нь олон хэрэглэгчийн анхаарлыг татдаг гол асуудал юм.
YouTuber Shelby Church өөрийн эзэмшдэг Tesla Model 3 загварын автомашины ашиглалтын зардлыг бодит тоо баримтаар танилцууллаа. Лос-Анжелес хотод 110 вольтын энгийн залгуураар цэнэглэдэг тэрээр нэг сарын хугацаанд 700 миль (ойролцоогоор 1,126 км) зам туулахад 162 кВт/ц цахилгаан зарцуулж, үүнд 36.14 ам.доллар төлсөн байна. Түүний тооцоолсноор, Tesla-г гэртээ цэнэглэх нь шатахуунаар ажилладаг автомашиныг дүүргэх зардалтай харьцуулахад хоёр дахин хямд тусдаг аж.
Tesla Model 3 нь хойд дугуйгаар хөтлөх систем бүхий нэг мотортой болон бүх дугуйгаар хөтлөх хос мотортой (Long-Range) гэсэн үндсэн хувилбаруудтай. Хурдны дээд хязгаар нь 125 миль/цаг бөгөөд 0-62 миль/цаг хурдыг загвараасаа хамааран 4.4-6.1 секундэд авдаг. Автомашины үндсэн үнэ 38,630 ам.доллароос эхэлдэг байна.
Гурван жилийн турш ашигласан туршлагаасаа хуваалцсан Church, цэнэглэх боломжтой нөхцөлд энэхүү автомашиныг сонгох нь эдийн засгийн хувьд үр ашигтай гэдгийг онцоллоо. Тэрээр өөрийн автомашины ашиглалтын зардлаас сэтгэл ханамж өндөр байгаагаа илэрхийлсэн байна.

When this California woman bought a Tesla Model 3, she never would have guessed the impact it would have on her electricity bill.
YouTuber Shelby Church wanted to illustrate how much her bills had gone up since she bought a Tesla.
You may have visions of skyrocketing costs.
But the real story behind the figures was more nuanced than that.
More and more Tesla owners are speaking out about costs that come with their EVs
Let’s face it, very few people are going to make a radical lifestyle change if it means it’ll cost them more money.
That’s certainly true for EVs, as plenty of people have been scared off buying them for fears that it’ll cost them a small fortune to keep them running and fully charged.
It’s no wonder then that more and more EV owners have been taking to the internet to share their own testimonies.
Whether it’s the total cost of ownership or charging costs, plenty of Tesla owners have done the number crunching for the benefit of other potential EV converts.
That’s certainly what YouTuber Shelby Church was aiming for with her video.
How much difference had a Tesla Model 3 made to this woman’s electricity bill?
Church uses a standard 110V wall outlet at home to keep her Model 3 charged.
In Los Angeles, under a tiered system, her rate comes out at around $0.23 per kWh.
Over one month of driving 700 miles had seen her log 162 kWh, which came out at a cost of $36.14.
“A full charge at a Supercharger is about $12 way cheaper than a tank of gas, right?” she said.
“But remember, that’s only for 240 miles. Most gas tanks are like five or six hundred miles, sometimes more. So you double that and you get the equivalent cost of filling up a gas tank.
“Double that and you get the equivalent cost of filling up a gas tank… basically $25 is the equivalent cost.
“So $60 [for gas] versus $25–$30ish… I mean, it’s basically half the cost of gas to charge your car at a Supercharger, and then at home it’s usually like a little less than that.”
After three years of ownership, she has no complaints.
“I’ve had it for like three years now and I still love it. I would not get a different car… unless I couldn’t charge where I lived,” she said.
