The ABCs of your Chevy EV
Owning an electric vehicle should be as simple and convenient as driving one. The easier for you to get started, the faster you can get to the fun stuff, like nearly instant torque, smooth acceleration and that blissful quiet of all-electric driving. So let's kick things off with the most important areas of EV ownership: the basics.
Maintenance
Keys to keeping your EV road-ready
Since EVs don't have engines, there are fewer moving parts to be concerned about. But there are still a few things you should maintain regularly to ensure your EV is ready to roll whenever you are.Â
- Tire inflation, balancing and wear
- Brake pads and rotors
- Battery health
- Cabin air filters
- Coolant, brake and windshield washer fluids
Battery health tips
When living an all-electric life, the overall health of your electric vehicle's battery should always be top of mind. To help with that, here are a few easy things to remember:
- Charging your battery to 80% for daily use helps promote battery health and optimal regenerative braking performance
- For longer trips, you can adjust your charge above 80% for extended range
- Since DC Fast Charging slows down as the battery fills up, charging beyond 80% isn't recommended
- Keep your EV plugged in when possible to condition the battery for optimal performance
