I drive 12,000 miles a year, my electricity rate is $0.13/kWh, gas costs $3.80 per gallon, and about 20% of my charging would be free — can you run the Tesla savings comparison and tell me when I'd break even and what it costs per full charge?","exampleUseCases":[{"title":"First-time EV buyer break-even analysis","prompt":"I'm considering a Tesla Model Y ($52,000, 330-mile range, 75 kWh battery) vs. a Honda CR-V (30 MPG, $35,000).
