How to Combat EV Range Anxiety
If you are thinking about purchasing an electric car, then having some flashes of EV range anxiety can leave you nervous. During your next road trip, you could be wondering how many miles you have left or if there’s a charging station near your you. We know this can be make you super anxious. So what exactly is EV range anxiety?
EV range anxiety is having anxiety about how far you can travel before you run out of charge or not finding a charging station in time. For some drivers, this thought is always in the back of their mind. For others, it typically only happens when the range in your ride is beginning to get low. Either way, it’s not a fun situation to be in. Here’s some tips to stay ahead of those anxious thoughts!
Tip #1 Range has improved drastically.
When electric cars were first designed, they didn’t have a lot of range, which has generated the uneasy feeling of range anxiety. But, we’ve designed the Toyota bz4X to have 252 miles in one charge to keep those anxious thoughts away.
Tip #2 Watch your instrument panel when needing a charge.
Also, it’s best to watch car’s instrument panel exactly as you would watch how much is in your gas tank. If you stay on top of this, then you’ll find a charging station by the time your range is out.
Tip #3 Install a charging station at home.
It’s best to install a place to charge you car in your house. Once it’s installed, you can charge your electric car and leave the EV range anxiety behind.
Tip #4 Stay on top of routine electric car maintenance.
It’s also best to reduce range anxiety by staying on top of your electric car maintenance. Our auto service technicians will do free multi-point inspections on your ride and can double check the battery in your car as well.
Tip #5 Know where to look for charging stations.
In addition, it’s great to know where you can charge your car in your area. You can check where some stations are on the maps in your phone. Another great resource to check for these are ChargeMap, PlugShare, and NextCharge.
