The change for many customers from an ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) to an Electric Vehicle is often slowed because they are scared of the vehicle range. Known as "range anxiety" this is a common customer fear when considering making the change to an Electric Vehicle. Don't be Scared - here's why.

A recent study of American driving habits noted that for many Americans driving over 150 miles in a day only happens a few times a year, in fact most drivers (excluding those that drive for work, thank you Uber Eats and Grubhub drivers for bringing us lunch!) rarely drive over 60 miles a day. With most electric vehicles having a range of close to or over 300 miles on a single charge range anxiety should never be a problem.

The key to a successful switch to an electric vehicle is home charging. Think of what you do with your cell phone every day, you plug it in at night and it is ready to go in the morning, this is the same thing electric vehicle drivers do with their vehicle. With most electric vehicle producers including a charging solution when you purchase all you need to worry about is plugging in and youre ready to go!

Yes, there are some drivers that might have to use public charging stations but with the increasing number of those being installed even those drivers should not have range anxiety.
