At 27.5 kWh per 100 miles, the 2026 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD is among the most efficient EVs EPA has rated for 2026: it uses less energy than 93% of the 321 2026 EV versions tested.

The 2026 Model Y Long Range AWD uses 5% less energy than the 2025 version (27.5 vs 28.8 kWh per 100 miles) and has more range (327 vs 311 miles): $24 a year less to charge in Florida.

EPA estimates 8 hours to charge the Model Y Long Range AWD from empty on a 240-volt Level 2 home charger, short enough to finish overnight. At 1,016 miles a month (about 33 miles a day), a day's driving takes roughly 50 minutes on a Level 2 charger.

Electricity would have to cost more than 41.7¢/kWh, 2.7 times Florida's rate, before the Tesla Model Y cost more per mile than the 2027 Honda CR-V FWD. Put the other way, gas would have to fall below $1.27 a gallon.

Gas costs use EIA's Florida retail average for regular gasoline ($3.44 a gallon over the same 12 months, 5% below the U.S. average of $3.61) and the 2027 Honda CR-V FWD's EPA rating of 30 mpg combined.
