Man who owns Tesla with more than 100,000 miles breaks down his monthly savings after switching

If you've ever wondered how much cash driving a Tesla could save you, one EV driver has done the math for you.

It's not new information that President Biden has made some ambitious plans to have America's roads filled with electric vehicles.

In fact, the Biden Administration outlined plans last year to have EVs make up at least 50 percent of new car sales by 2030, as well as build a national network of 500,000 electric vehicle chargers along the country's highways.

While it's unclear if these plan will still go ahead when Donald Trump returns to the White House in the New Year, there's no denying that there's a lot of perks that come with buying an EV such as a Tesla, and that they grow more popular as each year passes.

One key benefit of purchasing an electric car is the money you save on gas - something Tesla owners have long been raving about.

For example, one person worked out that they'd spent less than $400 over a 12 month period to charge their Tesla, which worked out to be $0.023 per mile.

In comparison, Americans spent $2,148 on gas over the course of 2021, Motley Fool Money reported.

This went up to an average of $2,449 as of last year, says J.D. Power, working out to be around 3.2 percent of a household’s yearly expenses.

Now, another Tesla owner has opened up about how much money they save each month thanks to their Tesla.

Appearing on a TikTok with influencer Suleyman Dolaev, the guy explained that he has a Tesla Model 3, and in the five years he's had it he's raked up 100,000 miles.

When asked if he thinks he's saved money by driving an EV, he said yes - a main part being because he's able to charge his car at home rather than at a Supercharger.

"I haven't seen that much of an increase in my electricity bill," the Tesla owner added.

He was then asked about how much he saves (on average) a month because he drives an EV.

"Urm, an estimate would be maybe, like, $150 to $200," the guy replied. "But that's just on gas in New York City, never mind what I save on oil change and things like that."

He went on to say that he 'definitely recommends' people ditch their gas car for an EV like his.

"Electrical vehicles are def the move," echoed someone in the comments section of the TikTok video.

However, others noted how costly it can be change the battery in an electric vehicle.
