Part 6/7:
Driving Speed: Higher speeds often encounter increased air resistance, consuming more energy.
Road Conditions: Poor weather, such as rain or snow, can increase rolling resistance, further impacting the car’s range.
Electrical Efficiency: Understand how regenerative braking can recover energy, enhancing overall efficiency during stop-and-go driving.
The Future of Charging Infrastructure
As electric vehicle adoption grows, expanding charging networks will become imperative. While today’s focus should be on installing convenient home and workplace chargers, the necessity for public DC fast chargers will allow for more prolonged travel without range anxiety.
