Simple steps to get started

Tell us about your current car and driving habits and we’ll do the rest.

1. Choose the size of both your current car and the EV you’re interested in.
2. Enter your average yearly mileage.
3. Add in the average price you pay per kilowatt of electricity and the average cost per litre of fuel.

That’s it – we’ll show you a clear comparison of annual running costs. If we’ve piqued your interest, why not come on down to your local Caffyns Volkswagen to discuss it further?

Please note: this tool focuses on running costs only and doesn’t include other expenses like the car’s purchase price, insurance or ongoing maintenance.

Whether you’re interested in an electric supermini, SUV, estate or people carrier, the ID range has it all. Ask our EV cost calculator and discover how the ID.3 stacks up against your current petrol runaround or see the ID.4 SUV go head-to-head with your diesel 4x4.
