What is an EV?

An EV, or electric vehicle, is a vehicle that runs solely on electricity. Electric vehicles are powered by batteries and electric motors, and they lack the internal combustion engines of traditional cars. Instead of burning gasoline, EVs require battery power, which can be recharged in a variety of different ways to keep your adventures going.

How do you charge an EV?

Charging an electric vehicle is relatively simple, and there are a number of ways for you to do it. One method is to plug your vehicle into a standard outlet, such as the ones that you can find in your garage. These outlets are slow to charge an electric vehicle, however, which is why most EV drivers opt to have a charger installed at their home. You can also stop at one of the thousands of public charging stations across the country if you need to stop during a longer trip. You can find fast charging stations that can help you recharge your battery quickly so that you don't need to interrupt your journey for very long.

How do electric vehicles work?

An electric vehicle stores power in its battery. This power can be replenished by recharging at a charging station. The battery powers its motor, the motor turns the wheels, and you get to enjoy the thrilling driving experience that ensues. The primary difference between an EV and a traditional vehicle is that an EV does not need to burn gasoline to get the energy it needs. There isn't even a place to put gasoline in an EV!

What are the Hyundai EV models?

How do Hyundai EVs compare to the competition?

When you pit Hyundai EVs against their closest rivals, you'll find that the Hyundai models put the pressure on the competition in terms of performance and range. Hyundai EVs also offer phenomenal value, supplying a vast array of standard features and excellent warranty coverage to help you get as much as possible from your driving and ownership experience.

Is it easier to maintain a Hyundai EV than a gas-powered car?

Generally, yes. One of the many benefits that you can enjoy when you drive a Hyundai EV is a less demanding auto maintenance experience. The lack of an internal combustion engine removes some of the costlier service items from a Hyundai EV's service intervals. For example, you won't need to schedule regular oil changes if you drive an EV because there is no engine to lubricate. That also means that you won't have to worry about servicing an engine's expensive components.

Electric vehicles like the Hyundai Kona Electric still require regular maintenance items, such as brake service, tire rotations, and other common services, but you can count on easier maintenance overall if you make the switch to an electric vehicle.
