Tips for saving money when charging your electric car
In this article, we explain how to reduce costs and optimize charging for your electric vehicle with practical tips.
You can reduce the charging costs for your electric vehicle by following a few simple strategies that help you save energy, time, and money while using your EV.
- Use the Evio app to find the cheapest charging stations and see how long charging will take. If you don’t use the app yet, request access to it on our website and enjoy the discount. The app is free!
- Choose supermarket charging stations (e.g. Continente) rather than gas stations, which are usually more expensive.
- Plan your charging stops during your breaks. Eat meals or take breaks near affordable charging stations so you can make the most of your charging time without losing work time.
- Charge the battery to between 20% and 80%. Avoid letting the battery drop below 20% or charging it beyond 80%, as the charging speed is slower at these extremes, making the process more expensive and time-consuming.
These practices help reduce loading costs and optimize the time spent on breaks, making the TVDE process more efficient.
