Electric Car Range: 5 Tips to Drive Further

• * Adopt a smooth driving style, avoiding rapid acceleration and sudden braking, and maintain steady speeds (40-60 km/h) to optimize battery use and regenerative braking.
• * Maximize the use of regenerative braking, especially in city traffic or on slopes, to recharge the battery and potentially increase range by 10-15%.
• * Maintain good charging habits by keeping the battery level between 20% and 80%, and manage temperature by avoiding direct sunlight and using pre-cooling features.
• * Reduce vehicle weight by removing unnecessary items, ensure correct tire pressure, and use the AC/heater moderately to conserve battery power.
• * Plan trips to include charging stations and ensure regular maintenance and software updates for improved energy management and range.
