Debunking 3 Common EV Myths

If you’re looking for an eco-friendly way to get around in Colorado, electric vehicle rentals from EV Rides are a great option. But before you book a rental, you may have heard some common myths about electric vehicles that have been circulating recently. To help you make an informed decision, we’re debunking three of the most common EV myths we hear often.

Myth #1: Electric Vehicles Take Too Long to Charge

Many people think that electric vehicles take too long to charge and, therefore, aren’t practical for everyday use. However, the truth is that modern electric vehicles can be charged up in as little as 30 minutes using a fast charger. That means you can easily go from empty to full battery power while grabbing lunch or running errands! Many shopping plazas now offer chargers at their locations, so you won’t even have to worry about finding a charger on the road.

Myth #2: Electric Vehicles Are Expensive

Another common myth we hear about electric vehicles is that they are too expensive for most people. This isn’t true, either.  While buying a new EV can be pricey, there are many affordable used models available from rental companies that won’t break your budget. Plus, renting an EV often works out cheaper than renting a traditional gas-powered car since EVs use less energy and require less maintenance than other types of cars.

Myth #3: Electric Vehicles Don’t Have Enough Range

Finally, we’re dispelling the myth that electric vehicles don’t have enough range for longer trips across the state. Our modern EV rentals come with batteries large enough to get you up to 200 miles per charge! This gives you plenty of range for exploring Colorado and nearby states. Plus, charging stations are becoming more widespread every day, so it’s easier than ever to find one near your destination if needed.
