Understanding Electric Car Range: How Far Do They Actually Go?

While less than 2% of vehicles are electric today, new EV car registrations in the U.S. increased 33% to more than half a million in 2019 from the previous year. Lots of people are wondering how far these cars can go on a charge. This is called "range. “Range is critical when it comes to understanding and planning for your trips,” Critics note that range estimates reported by automakers and used by the E.P.A. may exceed the disruption of a driver’s routine to find a charge. Picture driving over to Grandma’s house, or embarking on a cool trip. And you want to ensure you can get there before your charge dwindles! Dongcheyi would like to help you understand electric-car range, so that you can make smart choices when you’re ready to buy one

What Impacts Range Being Able to Go The Distance On One Charge

There are a lot of factors that determine how far an electric car can drive on one charge. The size of the battery is first and foremost immensely important. The larger batteries can store more energy. And that means they can help the car go further for the same amount of energy. For instance, some electric cars you can currently buy have batteries that will take you over 300 miles before they next need to be put on charge. That’s the equivalent of driving from New York City to Washington, D.C.! Yet not all batteries are created equal. Others are smaller and will only give you 100 miles. That’s a big difference

How you drive also affects distance. Drive fast or up steep hills and your car uses more energy. Think of it as running a marathon. You’ll burn out as soon as your first build battle. But if you take it step by step, you can go further. The same is true of electric cars. If you avoid accelerating or decelerating rapidly and try to maintain a constant speed, smooth driving can help you maximize your range on a charge

Weather also can be a factor. Batteries have to work harder in the cold, so they may drain energy more quickly. It is wintertime, and you might find that your electric car doesn’t get as far on a cold charge as it did in the summer months (or even fall or spring). Taking a blast of air conditioning or heat can also impact how far you can drive. So if it’s super hot or cold, you may need to charge your car more often

Finally, the weight of the car is also a factor. The more passengers or stuff are in your trunk, the heavier the car will be. Power=Force x velocity Heavier cars will commandeer more power to move. The same way that having a heavy backpack strapped to you will slow you down.” So when you’re planning your trips, bear in mind that all of these things can make a difference to what sort of range you will get out of your electric car

Electric cars have been gaining in popularity lately, but many people still wonder how far they can really go on a single charge

One big misconception is that electric cars cannot travel very far on a charge, relative to regular gas cars. A common thinking is that electric cars will have very short ranges, with little hope for taking a long road trip without running out of charge. However, this isn't always true. Today, there are many electric cars that can travel more than 200 miles on a single charge, and some even more! The range of an electric car varies for many reasons, including the size of the battery, how you’re driving and what kind of terrain you are traveling on. For instance, if you drive fast or use the air conditioner often, your electric car may not travel as far. Another myth is that it takes a long time to charge an electric car. Indeed, lots of electric cars can be recharged rapidly at dedicated charging points. Some stations will be able to provide enough power for a 100-mile drive in only 30 minutes! So if you pause for a meal or to stretch your legs, your car can juice up as well. Lastly, some people believe electric cars can’t travel very far in cold weather. Though extreme cold temperatures can take a toll on the battery, most electric cars are made to operate in various weather conditions. So, it’s crucial to be informed about the facts when it comes to electric car range in order to make better choices
