The Basics of Electric Vehicles
Electric vehicles operate by using an electric motor that is powered by a battery. EVs run on electricity and produce zero tailpipe emissions, unlike traditional gas-powered vehicles. This can result in reduced greenhouse gas emissions and lower overall carbon footprint, helping to keep the air around you clean and fresh.
When you purchase an EV, you want to consider different factors such as battery capacity, driving range, and charging capabilities. Different EV models can offer various ranges on a single charge, which can have an impact on how much you need to charge your vehicle for longer trips. Knowing your driving habits and needs for your daily commute can help you choose the right EV for you.
Things to Know About Purchasing an EV
Purchasing an electric vehicle also requires some consideration of your needs. You want to think about the charging solutions in your area. You also want to consider any incentives or rebates that may be offered for choosing an electric option.
You also want to consider the cost of charging at home. Different at-home solutions for charging your electric vehicle can require more setup, and if you plan to be on the go more, the difference between at-home charging and using a public charging station can also be a consideration.
Our dealership can help you understand the process of purchasing a new electric vehicle and the setup needed to be ready to bring your new EV home. We offer a wide selection of electric and hybrid cars that offer these charging capabilities.
The Importance of Charging Infrastructure
One of the primary things to consider as an electric vehicle owner is charging. You want to have access to various charging stations, both at home and while on the go. Understanding the different chargers available to you can go a long way.
Level 1 chargers are designed for home use and typically provide a slower charge rate. Level 2 chargers are designed to have faster charging speeds and can be found in both home and public solutions. DC fast chargers are the quickest option, allowing you to reach a full charge in your electric vehicle in a fraction of the time it takes with other chargers.
