covering the week's top tech stores with a slight linux bias curious if an electric car will save you money on fuel costs a report in canada shows that the average cost to charge an electronic vehicle in canada is just 277 canadian per year which is roughly 203 usd you switch who generated the report looked at the average price per kilowatt hours in 50 different countries the average mileage per driver and the average miles electronics vehicles get on a full charge to determine the statistic using this method canada is one of the least expensive countries to own an electronic vehicle in since the electricity is relatively cheap in some parts of the country the most expensive countries are denmark germany and belgium but even in the worst case we're talking amounts of around 800 per year for the average driver the data shows how much money drivers can save by moving away from powered cars if it costs around 60 dollars to fill up and you need to do that roughly once a month that means you're paying more for gas in four months than the average electric vehicle owner will pay in a year [Music]
