How to read the table

Battery size varies by trim within one model. The range figure shown is the longest electric-only figure in the captured sheet, not the one attached to the starting price.

What the group says

This is the group where the running-cost case is strongest, because the petrol cars are expensive to fuel and the electric cars are expensive to buy. Insurance and resale decide the result more than the kWh price does.
