With sunny weather back again and the snow melting away, I’m getting itchy feet and can’t help planning vacations. It doesn’t help that I’m re-reading On the Road by Kerouac. Maybe a USA road trip with a rented electric car is in order? Enjoy this guest post to get your soul wandering and mind planning new adventures….
A Green Way to Travel: Electric Vehicle Road Trips Mapped:
Cars give us the opportunity to explore famous mountains, plains and beaches. The summer season calls on people to travel and embark on cross-country road trip adventures stretching from Los Angeles to the East Coast, but there’s no doubt that this kind of journey leaves a massive carbon footprint.
The thought of cruising on the Pacific Coast Highway mesmerizes you, and the history behind Route 66 calls for your name. Maybe you wish to travel from coast to coast, taking in the breathtaking views and sights you have yet to see. Fortunately, the rise of electric vehicles is spurring change in the way we travel.
Electric cars give you an efficient way to fulfill your road trip desires. But is it possible to drive in this kind of vehicle for that far and long? The good news is, as electric vehicles continue to develop, so does the range (or miles driven on a single charge) — many cars like the Tesla Model 3, Chevy Bolt or Hyundai Kona Electric hold over 200 miles on a single charge. Additionally, many local governments are understanding the growing interest in electric cars, implementing charging stations for you to use whether at hotels, shopping malls or at rest stops. Not only are electric cars an environmentally friendly way to hit the road, but they’re also advanced to make navigation easier for you.
Yes, it is possible to go see the surf and snow, embark on Route 66, or take a trek cross-country in an electric car. But you need the right maps and knowledge for the cars and charging stations fit for you. When you’re talking about efficiency, electric cars beat out gas and diesel cars. They’re a legit way to take the road trip of your dreams. And, you can view this easy to reference visual that illustrates the staple details you need to know for taking a road trip in an electric vehicle.
