This guide exists because the transition to electric mobility (driving an electric car or truck) shouldn't be complicated or intimidating. Almost all EV owners never want to switch back to their gas or diesel vehicles, but many struggle in the first month to come up the learning curve. And almost everyone has a "close call" story. This book can fix that. With the right information and expectations, owning an EV can be not just environmentally responsible but also economically sensible and genuinely enjoyable. If you read this, or skim it, or just keep it you in your vehicle, it will fast-forward you into expertise, and help you avoid any bumps along the way.
If you have questions, you are not alone. There are hundreds. How do I charge? Where do I charge? Can I install a charger in my home? What kind if best? What is the deal with one-pedal driving? What apps do I need? Why do I need all these apps? Will an EV save me money? How do incentives and rebates work?
This guide has answers. It is designed to be a complete resource for everything you need to know about EVs. If you are a new owner, a prospective owner, or just curious about the experience, this is the guide for you. It is jam-packed full of tips, tricks, and how-to gathered from years of EV ownership, work as a transportation consultant, and participation in electric vehicle communities.
