Charging a Tesla in Oregon
$44 a month at 15.97¢ per kWh

$44 a month. That's what 1,000 miles in a Model Y Long Range AWD costs on Oregon's average home electricity price of 15.97¢ per kWh (July 2026, EIA). That's 13% below the US average of 18.31¢, and 23rd cheapest of 51 (50 states plus DC). Prices are up 2.3% from 15.61¢ in July 2025, so the same driving costs $0.99 more a month than a year ago.

The spread is the battery's appetite. A Cybertruck uses 1.8x the energy of a Model 3 Standard per mile, so it costs $30 more a month to drive the same 1,000 miles in Oregon.

EV vs gas in OregonRegular gas at $5.07 a gallon, week of Oct 12, 2026.

Gas price is from the EIA West Coast less California average (EIA has no separate weekly series for Oregon). Savings compare each car to the Model Y Long Range AWD above over 12 months.

Gas carPer 100 miPer monthModel Y saves / yr
Toyota Camry Hybrid LE (51 MPG)$9.94$99$666
Toyota RAV4 Hybrid (43 MPG)$11.79$118$888
Honda Accord 1.5T (32 MPG)$15.85$158$1,375
Honda CR-V 1.5T (30 MPG)$16.90$169$1,501

Even against a 51 MPG Camry Hybrid, the Model 3 Standard wins here: $3.88 vs $9.94 per 100 miles. Gas would have to fall to $1.98 a gallon for the hybrid to tie.

Before you trust the average: 15.97¢ is what Oregon homes paid on average, fees included. Your bill shows your real rate; divide the total by the kWh used. Supercharging usually costs more than home power, so road trips will run above these numbers.

Electricity: residential average, July 2026, EIA Electric Power Monthly Table 5.6.A. Gas: regular retail, week of Oct 12, 2026, EIA weekly retail gasoline by area.
