Sixt recharging expenses?

Looking at renting an electric car (Peugeot) from Sixt while in Paris for two days in mid September. Will only drive locally and will do far less than 100 miles. Online info says a fully charged car will go over 200 miles. They offer an option to top it off upon return for a $5.94 service charge plus the “standard going rate” of the power charge rate. This would seem to be the easiest way out. $6 is well worth not having to mess with it myself. But does anyone have any experience that what Sixt charges per kw is really a fair market rate, versus the common example in the US that car rental companies often gouge you on the price per gallon if you have them top it off on return. I’d just as soon not have to mess with it.

i was planning on just ubering around but have been advised the Uber service there, particularly outside of Paris (I’ll be just north) is unreliable.

Thanks for any thoughts/advice.
