Michigan has lower-than-average prices for charging an electric car at public charging stations.
The national average is $0.45 per kWh.
Michigan's rate is $0.39 per kWh.
Context: A typical EV with 300 miles of range usually takes about 75-100 kWh to go from empty to full.
The big picture: The cost of charging an electric vehicle widely varies from state to state, writes Axios' Alan Neuhauser, using data gathered by Stable Auto.
Charging an electric vehicle costs three times as much in West Virginia as in Nebraska.
Between the lines: The gap in prices suggests that EV charging companies are still figuring out how to price a top-off.
Cheap electricity in America's Midwest, for example, may explain the discounts in Nebraska, Iowa, North Dakota and Kansas, which aren't exactly hotbeds of EV adoption.
What they're saying: "Prices are probably set incorrectly and don't reflect underlying supply-demand," Stable CEO Rohan Puri tells Axios.
"There is still a lot of price herding in the industry with players, by and large, setting their prices based on what other nearby chargers have set their prices at."
