This is not a deal per say but I think people can benefit knowing that the citi/Costco Visa card now provides 4% cashback on EV charging. I believe this added benefit started around July or August because I got only 1% cashback on my June charging sessions.

Lol. For real? Save 40 cents a charge.
This is very cool, but the real slickdeal is charging at home with TOU rates
Seriously. Even for gas 5% (PFCU) isn't a huge amount. That's like $3ish a week. YEs it's $150 a year but not like it's thousands of $$$

For reference a M3LR has a 70kwh pack and 4% supercharging at $0.25/kwh (same price I pay at home ironically) would save you a whopping $0.70 for a full charge.

If that entices you to buy a Tesla..... uh.......

And that's not taking into account that the cash back is only usable if you have a costco membership (I think they let you cash it, and not just use it on purchases).

Yup… I'm on a TOU EV rate with a super off peak which is essentially $0.08 per kWh from 10pm to 5am. That combined with my Chargepoint Flex is super slick.

I don't know where you live, but many of the supercharging locations in NY are $0.46/kWh. I experienced this first hand while driving up to Montreal just couple of weeks ago.

Okay.. Then $1 saved per charge on your tesla....

Yep, certainly have to make the math work. I did 20 year one time lease payment and they paid for themselves in about year 8. So, not subject to these gas or electricity price spikes on personal expenses, but still pay in other ways until people start making better choices.

A lot of people get shot down for the Citi Costco card. I assume this card has the same rejection rate as the standard Citi Costco VISA.

If I had platinum honors I wouldn't need to worry about $0.70 savings per charge.

Note that the card still offers 3% on dining/travel and 2% at Costco. The change is just adding EV to the 4% gas category and perhaps increasing the annual limit on gas/EV from $6k to $7k.
