There are several things you can do to improve the range of an electric vehicle battery:
- Drive efficiently: Avoid sudden acceleration or hard braking, maintain a steady speed, and use regenerative braking to capture energy when slowing down.
- Reduce aerodynamic drag: Close windows and sunroof, remove roof racks and accessories that create wind resistance, and keep tires properly inflated.
- Minimize energy use: Avoid using accessories such as air conditioning and heating when not necessary, and reduce the use of other electrical systems like headlights, wipers, and audio.
- Plan your route: Use maps or apps that can help you find the most efficient route to your destination, taking into account factors like traffic, elevation changes, and weather conditions.
- Charge smartly: Charge your battery when it is low rather than waiting until it is completely depleted, and avoid fast charging whenever possible as it can degrade the battery faster.
- Maintain your battery: Keep your battery in good condition by avoiding extreme temperatures and not letting it sit at a low state of charge for extended periods of timeUpgrade your battery: If possible, consider upgrading to a higher capacity battery that can provide more range.
EXTRA TIP – Park indoors whenever possible.
