    I thought I would do some calculation we trade 7,000 miles per year, 21,000 mile 3 year lease we are Octopus Go 8.5 pence a kWh. and 3kWh/mile

    (a) 7000 miles based on 8.5p kWh £198.34 X 3 years without the 3p tariff =£595

    (b) 7000 miles plus 3 pence PAYG £210 + £198.34 X 3 years = £1225.02

    (c) 6400 miles charging at home 600 miles public charger at 80 pence a kWh = £1385.02

    If I change to a hybrid achieving 60mpg at £6 gallon

    (d) 7000 miles £700 X 3 years = £2100

    A hybrid will cost me an extra £714.98 over a 3 year lease, however in my case I would lose my Octopus Go tariff and have to change to Octopus Agile which would add an extra £360 per year to my energy bill totalling and extra £1794.98 over a 3 year lease., or £598.33 per year or £46.03 month.
