Default Are Plug In Cars More Costly Than Gas or Hybrid Fillups

GM will be introducing a full plug in hybrid, the Volt, in 2010 or 2011 as well as a plug in hybrid Saturn Vue.

Has anyone heard of the cost associated to get a full battery charge in these cars. These plug in electric cars are trying to achieve 40 miles on a single charge, how does the cost of an overnight battery charge compare to a $3 gas fill up for a hybrid car?

I haven't seen any numbers on the cost of this electricity anywheres.
