Charging Acura Electric Vehicles

Charging an Acura EV is very easy. All new models come with a standard portable charging cable with a Level II and Level I charging plug, which allows you to recharge easily at home if you have access to an outlet on the exterior of your home. There is also an option to have a Level II home charging station professionally installed for greater convenience. Most Acura EV owners can recharge conveniently as they sleep and wake up with a fully charged vehicle.

Acura EVs can also recharge at public charging stations, including DC fast charging stations, which allows them to regain 81 miles in just ten minutes. Fast charging capabilities mean effortless road trips and longer journeys, so you can enjoy your new EV mile after mile without worry.

Benefits of Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles come with many benefits. Acura EVs are stunning, with modern amenities, premium finishes, and wow-worthy technology features. Acura EV owners don't have to worry about fluctuating gas prices and can take advantage of current incentives and specials to make the switch even more financially enticing. While electric vehicles are more costly upfront than traditional gas vehicles, they are less expensive to own in the long run due to their minimal maintenance requirements and reduced fuel costs.

Acura EVs also deliver superior performance with nearly instantaneous torque, incredible horsepower output, and an exhilarating driving experience. Electric vehicles are so efficient at sending power to the wheels that they have excellent acceleration, and the quiet motors provide a unique element of stealth. If you've never experienced driving an EV, contact our team to schedule a test drive and get ready to be impressed.

Environmental and Health Benefits

One of the biggest benefits of switching to an electric vehicle is that it requires far less maintenance than traditional gas vehicles. With no combustion or harmful exhaust and fewer moving parts, an electric vehicle doesn't need oil changes, carbon emissions equipment, or transmission services. The typical maintenance for an EV is routine tire rotations and brake checks. You'll also need other small tasks typical of all vehicles, like fluid top-offs and windshield wiper replacements.

Electric vehicles have a similar braking system as traditional gas vehicles, except that there is also a regenerative braking system, which allows the vehicle to recapture the energy from slowing the vehicle and convert it back into electricity for the vehicle's battery pack. Traditional gas vehicles typically lose this energy to heat lost into the environment, and the more frequent use of friction brakes causes the brake pads to wear more quickly than in electric vehicles.
