Whatever your personal feelings may be about the Tesla brand and whether an electrical vehicle (EV) fits your lifestyle, it’s hard to argue with the potential fuel cost savings. Teslas tend to have great fuel economy, with many models getting well over the equivalent of 100 miles per gallon (mpg), according to U.S. federal government fuel efficiency data.
In comparison, a regular internal combustion engine (ICE) Honda Accord gets an average of 32 miles per gallon (mpg) for 2025 models. Honda also sells hybrid Accords, which get an average of 48 mpg or 44 mpg, depending on the model, according to federal data.
