Tips to Maximize Your EV’s Range

Rather than a combustion engine powered by fossil fuels, electric vehicles rely on rechargeable lithium-ion battery packs coupled with electric motors to generate movement. The size of the battery pack and the amount of power it can hold after a single charge will depend on the make of the vehicle, with some EVs having modest, two-digit ranges while others have as much as 400 miles of range. But regardless of the initial range an…
