I had heard about 7 years ago when we first bought our electric cart that the cost to charge it was approx $9/month. Of course, that depends on how much you use it and elec rates have changed over time.

Someone once posted a cost comparison between elec and gas and the cost per mile was pretty close....taking into account cost to replace batteries every three years along with monthly elec usage vs gasoline consumption.

To each their own....
