EV Ownership FAQ

What are the main benefits of switching to an all-electric vehicle?
- There are plenty of reasons why more and more drivers are making the switch to an EV. First, there’s the tremendous environmental benefits that come from producing zero tailpipe emissions. You’ll enjoy the satisfaction that comes from knowing that you’re doing your part to help our planet. Second, you can’t ignore the money you’ll save from never having to stop and fill up your tank with gasoline. Finally, the instantaneous acceleration and effortlessly smooth power delivery of EVs are two other characteristics that you simply can’t find on a conventional vehicle.
Is it cheaper to charge an EV compared to spending money on gas?
- With the qualification that electricity rates and gas prices tend to fluctuate and vary by region, it does typically cost less per month to drive an EV from an energy cost standpoint. Combined with the outstanding charging package choices included with your new Honda EV and potential tax credits available to you as an EV owner, the savings will only continue to grow over time!
Where is the best place to charge my EV?
- The short answer is that it depends! It’s hard to overlook the convenience of a home charging station, allowing you to wake up each morning to a fully charged battery. While you’re out and about, you can also use a public charging station to top off the battery while you’re at work or running errands. Even on longer journeys, dedicated DC fast charging stations help you charge quickly while enjoying a meal or some shopping. The best place to charge depends on your needs and driving habits. Fortunately, there are plenty of solutions to suit just about any type of lifestyle.
