Get the Most Range Out of Your Electric Vehicle This Winter

If you're like many people, you may be wondering how your electric vehicle will fare in the cold winter months. Fortunately, there are a few steps you can take to ensure that you get the most out of your range over the winter months. Here are a few tips to keep in mind.


  1. Keep your battery charged. One of the biggest challenges facing electric vehicles in cold weather is that the battery loses range faster when it's cold. As a result, it's important to keep your battery as charged as possible during the winter months. One way to do this is to plug in your vehicle whenever you can, even if it's just for a few hours at a time.

  1. Use a heat pump if your car has one. Many electric vehicles come equipped with a heat pump, which is a more efficient way to heat the cabin than the standard heater. If so, you can use it to help extend your range.

  1. Plan your routes carefully. In cold weather, it's important to plan your routes carefully to avoid getting stranded somewhere with a dead battery. map out routes that avoid hills and other areas where you might use up a lot of energy. And, if possible, try to stick to main roads where you'll have better access to charging stations if needed.

  1. Pre-heat your EV. If your electric vehicle has a pre-heat feature, use it to heat the cabin before you start driving. This will help you to avoid using as much energy while driving and can help to extend your range.

Following these tips will help you get the most out of your electric vehicle this winter. But if you have any additional questions or concerns, be sure to contact us for more guidance. We're here to help ensure that you have a great experience with your electric vehicle all winter long!
