As you can see from the image above, the car averaged 14.7kWh/100km in February (down slightly from the 15.6 in January). This is the best fuel economy that the car has returned during this Project, and is probably down to unseasonally mild weather for this time of year. There's an irony in a car with no emissions gaining an advantage from global warming!
This works out at a cost of €1.85 per 100km (charging at home). By way of comparison, a reasonably good efficiency in a petrol car would be 5l/100km. At current petrol prices around Galway (€1.35-ish per litre), this equates to about €6.75 per 100km. Over the distance travelled in February, such a petrol car would have cost about €59 in fuel.
