I am pleased to report that my electric bill for my first full month of Leaf ownership dropped from 2,685 KWh used in the same month the year before to 2,615 (I know it is a lot, but I have a big, leaky house in hot climate). At my average of 5.2m'kwh for 1,016 miles, I used 195.4 kwh for driving, or 7.5% of my total FPL bill. With all taxes and fees included, power costs 11.7 cents/kwh, so the Leaf charging cost was $22.86. That is 2.25 cents per mile.
Gas is expensive in Miami, so at an average price of $3.70 per gallon, I bought the equivalent of 6.18 gallons of gasoline for my $22.86 electric bill payment. Because I drove 1,016 miles on the equivalent of 6.18 gallons, I realized an equivalent of 164.4 miles per gallon.
These are numbers the public can relate to. What figures are others seeing in light of your m/kwh and local gasoline prices?
