Frequently Asked Questions
About Electric Vehicles
01How much does it cost to charge an electric car?
The cost of charging an EV can vary depending on the most recent electric rates. On average, you can expect it to cost between $10-$20 to fully charge an electric car's battery.
02What is the driving range of an electric car on a full charge?
The range of an electric vehicle can greatly depend on the specific model, but new Nissan EVs like the ARIYA and LEAF can usually go between 200 and 300 miles on a full charge. However, factors such as driving speed, cargo load and terrain can impact your expected range.
03How long does it take to charge an electric car at home?
The time it takes to charge an electric vehicle depends largely on the type of home charger you use. Using a standard 120V AC outlet (Level 1 charger), it could take a day or more to fully charge an EV. However, with a 240V AC supply (Level 2 charger), charging time can be reduced dramatically -- often you can fully charge a completely depleted EV battery overnight.
04How long can an electric car be driven before needing a recharge?
This depends on the vehicle's driving range and your personal driving habits. However, given that most electric cars can go 200-300 miles on a full charge, it's quite feasible to manage several days or even a week before needing a recharge.
05How does weather impact electric car performance?
Extreme weather conditions can affect electric car performance, as both extremely hot and cold temperatures can diminish electric car battery performance. The impacts are usually slight, however, and likely won't impact your day-to-day driving needs.
