Improve your electric vehicle supplies while driving around the city
The offer of electric cars has increased and there are modern ranges of vehicles with better supplies than years ago. Electric vehicles can obtain energy through external sources of recharging (connection to points) or internal, through the inverter that regenerates the energy that is sent to the engine while the vehicle is in operation.
Do you want to know some tips to optimize the energy, resources, performance and range of your electric vehicle? Check 4 recommendations below!
Optimal air conditioning
The ideal car temperature to drive in a confortable way is around 21-22 ºC and a moderate use of the air conditioning means that the electric vehicle does not consume more energy than the necessary.
Use the ECO mode
Electric vehicles have different driving modes that allow them to adapt to the needs of each journey.
Activating the Eco mode on city routes saves and accumulates energy by 15%, since the system automatically adapts the vehicle's response to the accelerator and the engine power. You will increase the autonomy of the vehicle!
Regenerative braking
The electric car inverter regenerates the energy produced when you take your foot off the accelerator and the vehicle's speed is reduced.
If you descelerate while driving, you will generate electricity that will be sent to the car battery. Driving on urban routes where there are many stops, you can increase the autonomy of the vehicle.
External recharging of batteries
Experts believe that batteries should not be fully recharged. It is also not recommended to leave the car plugged in once the recharging process is finished. Do not abuse fast recharges and take care of the vehicle during the hottest months.
With these recommendations you will be able to optimize the energy of your car and get the most out of your trips around the city!
