NeoCharge analysis reveals significant financial advantage of electric vehicles

NeoCharge, leader in infrastructure for charging electric vehicles (EVs), released a study that shows a 30% jump in the Brazilian fleet of electrified cars in just seven months. According to the analysis, Brazil recorded an increase from 120.518 to 157.038 electrified vehicles from December 2022 to July 2023, according to data from Senatran. This advance reflects Brazilian drivers' awareness of the economic and environmental benefits of EVs, a trend that is gaining momentum globally.

Cost comparison: Electric versus combustion

The savings provided by EVs become clear when analyzing the annual cost of supply. With an average gasoline price of R$5,82 per liter, a gasoline car that runs 20.000 km per year, with an efficiency of 10 km/L, would have an annual cost of R$11.663,28. On the other hand, an EV with the same number of kilometers traveled annually and a consumption of 6 km/kWh at R$0,72 per kWh would result in an expense of just R$2.401,92. This represents a notable saving of 79% or R$9.261,36 per year.

Impact for app drivers

For professionals such as app drivers, who travel an average of 60.000 km per year, the financial advantage of EVs is even more pronounced. NeoCharge calculates that, in this scenario, filling up with gasoline would cost R$34.920 annually, while for an EV, the cost would be just R$7.197. This difference is equivalent to an annual saving of approximately R$28.

Additional Benefits of Electric Vehicles

In addition to the significant cost savings, Raphael Pintão, founding partner of NeoCharge, highlights other factors that drive the choice for EVs: the reduction in emissions polluting gases, the superior efficiency of electric motors, lower maintenance costs and optimized performance, with maximum torque available instantly. In contrast, combustion vehicles reach maximum torque in higher rpm ranges.

NeoCharge and electric mobility in Brazil

NeoCharge, which emerged in 2016 as an extension of NeoSolar, a pioneer in photovoltaic solar energy since 2010, has the mission of promoting electric mobility in the country. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio that includes the distribution of charging equipment, specialized courses, technical services and the shared operation of charging stations and charging stations, all to facilitate the transition to more sustainable mobility.
