I just compared the two plans for DC Fast Charging: On-the-Go and Flex.
It seems to me that if you only use EVGo once per month for one hour, the $14.95/month plan is the best way to go.
The Flex plan:
No Monthly fee
$4.95 setup fee
$4.95 session fee + $.20 per minute
BUT NOTE: the EVGo's apparently automatically end the "session" at 30 minutes, so one hour charging requires 2 sessions!
So if you use the Flex plan to charge for one hour it will cost you $21.90 plus $4.95 the first time you setup the Flex program.
The On-The-Go plan costs:
$14.95 per month
$.10 per minute
So if you use the On-The-Go plan to charge for one hour it will cost you $20.95.
The difference is more dramatic if you use their system more times per month:
2 one hour charges per month:
Flex = $43.80; On-The-Go = $26.95
3 one hour charges per month:
Flex = $65.70; On-The-Go = $32.95
and so forth...
NOTE: You must commit to a 12 month contract at $14.95 per month even if you do not charge in that month with a $29 early termination fee. I suspect that the 12 months contract automatically renews itself at the end of the year if you do not give notice to terminate.
Is my math correct?
