This is the number of miles the car can typically drive between full charges. For example, if the range per charge for an EV is 100 miles and your daily commute is 30 miles, you should be able to go about 3 days between charges (30 miles + 30 miles + 30 miles = 90 miles). EV range varies significantly between models.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"related-content\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/article>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<article id=\"post-36717\" class=\"accordion-item post-36717 hwcp-faqs type-hwcp-faqs status-publish hentry faqs_category-evs\">\n\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" class=\"accordion-title plain\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span>Do you frequently take long road trips?<\/span><\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"accordion-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Long road trips can present challenges for today's electric vehicles.

Electric cars typically have a shorter maximum range on a charge than fossil-fueled cars. However, EVs can be charged at home &#8211; no gas station required &#8211; and the overall operation cost is typically substantially less than a gasoline-powered vehicle. It\u2019s worth noting that 78% of all commuters in America drive less than 30 miles per day<sup>1<\/sup>, thus if they are driving an EV, they can go multiple days without recharging. Many of today\u2019s EVs have a range well over 100 miles per charge, with some models reaching more than 300 miles per charge.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_561695146 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n  background-color: rgb(225, 237, 239);\n}\n#section_561695146 .section-bg.bg-loaded {\n  background-image: url(https:\/\/whyelectrify.powerfulgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/vehicle-range-bg.svg);\n}\n#section_561695146 .section-bg {\n  background-position: 0% 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-1725841140\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1725841140 {\n  padding-top: 85px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<section class=\"section vehicle-charging-head dark\" id=\"section_140246655\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill  bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\t<div id=\"text-2265955127\" class=\"text\">\n\t\t\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36696 aligncenter\" role=\"img\" src=\"https:\/\/whyelectrify.powerfulgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/icon-charging-options.svg\" alt=\"\" width=\"38\" height=\"38\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Vehicle Charging Options<\/h3>\n<p>Charging your EV requires plugging into a charger connected to the electric grid, also called electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE).

Battery replacement is typically costly, but keep in mind that gas-powered vehicle equipment, such as motors and transmissions, have a lifespan too. The rate at which batteries expire depends on the type of battery and how they are used. The failure rate of some electric vehicles batteries already on the road is as low as 0.003%<sup>2<\/sup>. There are also high mileage warranties on electric vehicle batteries available with many manufacturers. Several manufacturers offer multi-year and 100,000 mile+ warranties on the batteries in their vehicles.
