Two vehicles, one set of assumptions

Pick up to four exact EPA configurations. All get the same mileage, driving mix, and energy prices — so the difference you see is the vehicles, not the assumptions. Gasoline and electricity are always priced separately; MPGe is never treated as MPG.

2026 Volvo XC60 T8 AWD: Electric-mile share defaults to the EPA utility factor for this vehicle (64% of miles in charge-depleting mode, based on typical daily driving and charging once per day). Adjust it to match your own charging habits. MPGe values shown on the EPA label combine electricity and gasoline and cannot be used as ordinary MPG; this estimate prices each energy source separately instead.
