    Rav4 EV for Business Use

    Anybody using the Standard Mile Tax Break of $0.56 / mile for using your car for business use? Comes out to $0.19 per mile savings for driving your car. If you have a free source of electricity, that's $19 per 100 miles driven. With cheap electricity it's probably around $14 per 100 miles.

    90 mile round trip commute
