Home vs public charging in Luxembourg — the 5 cheapest EVs to charge
Public and DC fast charging in Luxembourg is billed per session by each network and varies widely, so we model it the way the kernel does on every cost page: 2.5× the home rate — about €0.68/kWh against €0.27/kWh at home. That is a planning estimate, not any network's tariff. Here is what it does to the 5 cheapest-to-charge models we price in Luxembourg:
| Electric model | Per 100 km at home | Public (≈2.5× home) | Extra per year if all-public |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tesla Model 3 (RWD) | €3.96 | €9.90 | +€891 |
| Ford Explorer Standard Range RWD (52 kWh) | €4.11 | €10.28 | +€925 |
| Renault 5 E-Tech electric (52 kWh) | €4.20 | €10.50 | +€945 |
| Volkswagen ID.3 Neo (Pro, 59 kWh) | €4.35 | €10.88 | +€979 |
| Mercedes-Benz GLC 400 4MATIC with EQ Technology | €4.47 | €11.18 | +€1,006 |
- Tesla Model 3 (RWD) is the cheapest EV to charge in Luxembourg — €3.96 per 100 km at home — and at the public estimate (€9.90) it still beats the €11.40 of petrol a 7 L/100 km car burns over the same distance.
- A Ford Explorer Standard Range RWD (52 kWh) draws 13.7 kWh per 100 km, so home charging runs €4.11; at the public estimate (€10.28) it lands about level with the €11.40 of petrol for a 7 L/100 km car.
- For the Renault 5 E-Tech electric (52 kWh), public-only charging would add about €945 a year at 15,000 km/year over charging at home (€4.20 vs €10.50 per 100 km); that puts it level with a 7 L/100 km petrol car's €11.40.
- A Volkswagen ID.3 Neo (Pro, 59 kWh) draws 14.5 kWh per 100 km, so home charging runs €4.35; at the public estimate (€10.88) it lands about level with the €11.40 of petrol for a 7 L/100 km car.
- For the Mercedes-Benz GLC 400 4MATIC with EQ Technology, public-only charging would add about €1,006 a year at 15,000 km/year over charging at home (€4.47 vs €11.18 per 100 km); that puts it level with a 7 L/100 km petrol car's €11.40.
Even at the 2.5× public estimate, all 5 of these models still undercut the €11.40 of petrol a typical 7 L/100 km car burns per 100 km — in Luxembourg the charging case survives without a driveway. Our 5-year totals on each model page assume 80% home / 20% public charging at this same multiple — these two columns are the ends of that range.
