Should I charge my EV to 100% every night?
It’s best to keep your EV’s charge between 20% and 80% most days. Daily top-ups prevent the need for full charges which helps maintain battery health. If you charge the EV battery up to 100% regularly, it can strain it. Conversely if you regularly let it drop too low, it can cause the battery to wear. Always charging to 100% isn’t the best idea The extremely high or low state of charge can reduce the lifespan of the battery. Many modern EV chargers automatically shut off once the battery reaches full charge. Ideally, it is best to keep your battery between 30 & 80% charge.It’s important to know about the “80 % rule” if you’re on a long-distance drive in an EV. When it’s time to charge, it’s often smarter to stop at 80% and then get back on the road, instead of waiting for the battery to completely fill up. Doing so maximizes your use of time.
