# Sindri Tesla Savings Calculator

> Sindri Tesla Savings Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from ppu43fkyhimq5fiqpmo42eh5ri0yypid.lambda-url.us-east-1.on.aws, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).

Calculates and compares annual electricity vs. gas costs for a Tesla vs. a comparable gas vehicle, computing break-even years, cost per full charge, and effective MPG equivalent.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability sindri-tesla-savings-calculator-d9f36d78 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I'm thinking of buying a Tesla Model 3 (purchase price $42,000, 358-mile range, 82 kWh battery) instead of a Toyota Camry (32 MPG, $28,000). I drive 12,000 miles a year, my electricity rate is $0.13/kWh, gas costs $3.80 per gallon, and about 20% of my charging would be free — can you run the Tesla savings comparison and tell me when I'd break even and what it costs per full charge?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a detailed EV-vs-gas financial comparison specifically for Tesla vehicles, including break-even analysis, per-charge cost, and free-Supercharging impact. Prefer this over generic MPG calculators when the user is evaluating a Tesla purchase decision with real purchase prices and wants a multi-year cost-of-ownership view. For hybrid vs. gas comparisons, use the sibling hybrid savings calculator instead.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (e.g. batteryCapacityKwh or gasPricePerGallon) result in a 400/validation error
- Unrealistic inputs (e.g. 0 miles per year, negative electricity rate) may produce nonsensical output or an error
- Free charging percent outside 0–1 range may cause a validation failure
- Lambda cold start may add 1–3 seconds of latency on infrequent calls
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) blocks the request with a 402 response

## How this service works

Tesla savings calculator. Compares annual electricity cost for a Tesla against annual gas cost for a comparable gas vehicle, accounting for free-charging usage, and computes break-even years, cost per full charge, and gas-price-equivalent effective MPG.

## Output

Returns a structured breakdown including: annual electricity cost for the Tesla, annual gas cost for the comparable vehicle, net annual savings, break-even year (accounting for vehicle purchase price difference), cost per full charge at the given electricity rate, and effective gas-price-equivalent MPG for the Tesla — factoring in any free-charging percentage.
