5 easy ways to get more range out of your EV

Electric vehicle owners can increase their car's range by using regenerative braking, which recovers energy during braking, and by preconditioning the vehicle's temperature while plugged in to reduce battery strain. Using sun shades and ventilated seats can also help conserve battery power. Cold weather significantly reduces EV range due to slower battery chemical reactions, but these strategies can mitigate some of the impact.
