🔋 The truth about long-distance EV road trips.
When Gia Mora made a commitment in 2021 to fly only once every three years for environmental reasons, she faced challenges in long-distance travel. However, she found a solution by trading her and her partner’s hybrid SUV for the all-electric Hyundai Ioniq 5. With its fast-charging battery and long range, the Ioniq 5 enabled Gia and her partner to embark on road trips with significantly reduced emissions. The Electrify America charging network provided convenient charging locations, and the couple only had to charge at non-network stations on a few occasions. Gia also highlighted the importance of planning charging stops, the impact of temperature on range and charging times, and the unexpected benefits of charging at Walmart locations.
