Named after inventor Nikola Tesla, the company aimed to prove that electric vehicles (EVs) could be faster, more efficient, and just as desirable as traditional gasoline-powered cars.

The post, shared by a user on X (formerly Twitter), left thousands of people scratching their heads in disbelief.

Their bill? Just $2.37—roughly £1.89. That’s it. People couldn’t believe their eyes.

“First time I’ve had a bill in the last 12 months. This sucks,” the user wrote, seemingly disappointed by the minuscule cost.

But the real jaw-dropper? The total cost for running a Tesla for a whole year, including charging it.

  via Getty Images  

Naturally, many were curious about how the bill could be so low—especially since electric vehicles (EVs) can rack up serious energy costs.

“How much did you pay for solar panels and the wall battery?” one person immediately asked.

Another commenter followed up, requesting a look at the user’s power wall or solar panel payments to uncover the magic formula.

Tesla powerwall explained

The Tesla owner responded, revealing the secret to their tiny bill: solar panels combined with a Tesla Powerwall.

  via Getty Images  

For those unfamiliar, the Tesla Powerwall is a high-tech lithium-ion battery designed to store energy for future use, either from solar panels or the grid itself.

  via Getty Images  

According to Tesla, this smart system provides “energy security and financial benefits” by allowing users to store and manage electricity.

  via Getty Images  

The Powerwall comes with energy monitoring, metering, and controls through a custom app, offering full transparency for the user.

  via Getty Images  

But don’t get too excited—this technology doesn’t come cheap. The Powerwall costs anywhere from £5,000 to £10,000, depending on the model.

  via Getty Images  

While the Tesla owner’s bill was an incredibly low amount, the upfront investment in solar panels and the Powerwall is hefty.

  via Getty Images  

Even so, the owner shared their satisfaction with the results, explaining that they had seen enormous savings over the course of the year.

  via Getty Images  

This bill comes as more Tesla owners experiment with the Powerwall and solar energy, seeking ways to cut energy costs in a world of rising electricity prices.

  via Getty Images  

In general, running an electric car is more affordable in the long run, thanks to fewer maintenance needs and less fuel expenditure.

Tesla owner’s post continues to spark debate.

  via Getty  

One thing’s for sure: the Tesla owner’s post has ignited a firestorm of curiosity, and it’s clear that the future of driving may be greener and cheaper than ever.

But with the high upfront cost of solar panels and the Powerwall, is the investment really worth it for most people?

As EVs gain popularity, and as more people turn to alternative energy sources, this viral post raises one big question: Could your electricity bill ever be this low?
