Driving electric isn’t just about reducing emissions — it’s about keeping more of what you earn. Every week, petrol and hybrid drivers hand over $100 -$150 or more* at the pump, but with an EV, your power outlet becomes your fuel station.
By switching into a Tesla or Polestar with Splend, and charging at home, your costs can drop to as little as $5* a night. That’s over $7,500* in savings a year when you upgrade from petrol and up to $4,500* from hybrid.

If you're making the switch from a petrol or hybrid car to an EV, you'll start noticing a difference in savings straightaway. But even if you're already driving an EV, changing how you charge can make just as powerful a difference in your savings.
Public charging costs add up fast. Not to mention the time wasted waiting at charging stations. With smart at-home charging, especially on off-peak energy plans, you’ll slash costs and save time, putting more money and hours back in your day. The smarter you charge, the more you save — every single week.
What does that means in real dollars?*
