Electric Car Cost Calculator

Q: Is listing an electric car on Car Spot free?

7 days free with zero commission if you sell within that period. You can extend at any time, and your free 7 days always come first.

Q: What should I check when buying a used electric car?

The most important thing is battery health — look for a State of Health (SoH) report showing at least 75–80%. Also check the remaining warranty, the charging cable included, and whether the car supports fast charging.

Q: How do I calculate electric car running costs?

Multiply your daily distance in km by your kWh cost (in fils ÷ 100 ÷ km per kWh). The calculator above does this automatically — just enter your commute distance and tariff.

Q: What is a good battery health percentage for a used EV?

Anything above 80% is generally healthy. Below 70% you may notice a meaningful drop in real-world range compared to the original spec. Ask the seller for a battery health report before buying.

Q: How long does it take to charge an electric car?

A 7kW home charger takes 5–10 hours for a full charge depending on battery size. Fast chargers (50–150kW) can charge to 80% in 30–60 minutes. Check your vehicle is compatible with the charger type before buying.
