I drive a '15 and it's very efficient on city streets. However as soon as I get on the highway at 60-70 mph the trend line on the guessometer drops like a stone. ....
This is all vehicles that move through the air.

Wind resistance increases with the square of velocity.

How many pennies is it costing you to drive 70 MPH? ;)
 
Good point. Running takes more energy than walking.

As for the cost, right now it's near 0 because work supplies the electrons (I don't have a home charger). It's an amazing feeling to not buy gas. In 3 years they'll start charging me 2.50 / hour so I'll have to visit the mall more or something.. but that's not a concern for a while. Love driving my electric tic tac! Compared to my gas car the experience is like going form analog TV to digital.
