In addition to this 100% torque right off the line, most electrics also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – A driving experience that hugs the corners! And finally, the ride is further improved by reduced overall cabin noise and less vibration.</li><li style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Reliability. “EVs have 10-times fewer moving parts than a gasoline powered car,” says advocacy group Plug in America. This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability. And because electric cars all have regenerative brakes, the brake pads and rotors don’t wear as quickly, and may even last the life of the vehicle with little or no maintenance. <a style=\"font-size: 16px;\" href=\"https://insideevs.com/chevy-volt-400000-miles-odometer-no-noticeable-battery-degradation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read about the plug-in electric car with over 400,000 miles!</a> </li><li style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Convenience. An EV provides far greater convenience than the way we drive and fuel now. You charge an electric car like a cell phone — <a style=\"font-size: 16px; background-color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">overnight, while you sleep</a>. It’s sort of like having a gas pump in your garage, but without the mess. So, with an electric car you wake up back on “Full” and always ready to drive. And for many drivers, the car comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway. </li><li style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Savings. Electric cars offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat. In many cases, after <a style=\"font-size: 16px; background-color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">federal, state and other incentives</a> are factored in, this savings makes <a style=\"font-size: 16px;\" href=\"https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/05/new-study-finds-electric-vehicles-offer-lowest-total-cost-ownership/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EV costs less total to own over five years than a comparable gasoline only vehicle</a> This is in part because the average long-term price of electricity is less than half what gasoline would cost for the same driving, and also in part because of those far lower maintenance requirements (that will save you time as well, because less time will be spent at the auto shop).</li></ol><p><strong>What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</strong></p><p> The purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

Basics</h3>		\n		<p><strong>What is the difference between a hybrid and an electric car? </strong></p><p>A hybrid car derives some of its power from a conventional gasoline engine and some from an electric motor and battery, and all of its energy from gasoline. A hybrid’s battery is typically only recharged from regenerative braking energy when the car slows being put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.</p><p>On the other hand, an electric car gets driving power from an electric motor, and that energy is from a battery that has been recharged from the grid or another external source. Electric cars also all use regenerative braking to increase efficiency.</p><p><strong>There are two types of electric cars, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p><img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\" /></p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the car you drive now.

A hybrid’s battery is typically only recharged from regenerative braking energy when the car slows being put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.</p><p>On the other hand, an electric car gets driving power from an electric motor, and that energy is from a battery that has been recharged from the grid or another external source. Electric cars also all use regenerative braking to increase efficiency.</p><p><strong>There are two types of electric cars, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p><img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\" />PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the car you drive now.

A federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost to buy or lease an electric vehicle by as much as an additional $7,500. Note that the federal EV tax credit is calculated as part of your tax return filing for the year of purchase and therefore is received by you typically between Feb – April of the following year as part of any tax refund you would receive. For leased vehicles, the credit is taken by the leasing company and a portion of it passed on to the consumer as a lease cost reduction.</p><p>As a non-refundable type of tax credit, like a home mortgage interest deduction, eligibility is based on your annual tax liability, and you can’t roll over the credit to subsequent years. The total amount of the credit is also based on the battery size of the vehicle, so some plug-in hybrid electric vehicles may only qualify for a partial credit amount.</p><p>The credit also phases out per manufacturer after 200,000 vehicles are sold, so it’s important to verify the brand you choose to buy is still eligible.

In fact, it usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! There are three levels of charging rate to choose from, depending upon your needs and lifestyle.</p>		\n										<img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" />											\n			<h2>LEVEL 1 CHARGING<br>\"REGULAR\" speed</h2>		\n		<h2>Examples: home overnight</h2><p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-style: normal;\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"title\" data-pen-placeholder=\"Type Here...\">In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! The adapter comes with a cord and charger head that plugs into your EV. Once it is initially set up it is always ready and on standby, and then it only takes a few seconds to plug it in to your car in each night. It really is that easy! Level 1 works best for plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) with small batteries, and/or people who do not drive much each day, as it adds range of between 3 and 6 miles per hour of charging, or up to around 50 miles overnight.</p>		\n										<img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" />											\n			<h2>LEVEL 2 CHARGING <br>\"PLUS\" speed</h2>		\n		<h2>Examples: home, workplace, destination</h2><p>A Level 2 charging system consists of a 240 volt wiring circuit from your house electrical panel to a either a NEMA 14-50 outlet (much like the outlet into which you’d plug an electric stove or clothes dryer), or hard-wired to a wall-mounted EV charging station. The most common type of charging both private and public, Level 2 adds up to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type. This means that even the longest range electric cars will always get a full charge overnight using properly matched Level 2 equipment. Level 2 charging equipment can be purchased for as little as $200. The installation may only require minor work by an electrician or may require some upgrades to your panel or wiring.

In fact, it usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! There are three levels of charging rate to choose from, depending upon your needs and lifestyle.</p>		\n										<img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" />											\n			<h2>LEVEL 1 CHARGING<br>\"REGULAR\" speed</h2>		\n		<h2>Examples: home overnight</h2><p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-style: normal;\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"title\" data-pen-placeholder=\"Type Here...\">In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! The adapter comes with a cord and charger head that plugs into your EV. Once it is initially set up it is always ready and on standby, and then it only takes a few seconds to plug it in to your car in each night. It really is that easy! Level 1 works best for plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) with small batteries, and/or people who do not drive much each day, as it adds range of between 3 and 6 miles per hour of charging, or up to around 50 miles overnight.</p>		\n										<img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" />											\n			<h2>LEVEL 2 CHARGING <br>\"PLUS\" speed</h2>		\n		<h2>Examples: home, workplace, destination</h2><p>A Level 2 charging system consists of a 240 volt wiring circuit from your house electrical panel to a either a NEMA 14-50 outlet (much like the outlet into which you’d plug an electric stove or clothes dryer), or hard-wired to a wall-mounted EV charging station. The most common type of charging both private and public, Level 2 adds up to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type. This means that even the longest range electric cars will always get a full charge overnight using properly matched Level 2 equipment. Level 2 charging equipment can be purchased for as little as $200. The installation may only require minor work by an electrician or may require some upgrades to your panel or wiring.

Therefore, most charging stops would be only minutes at a time. For example, depending on model and station some vehicles are already capable of adding 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, and the next generation of vehicles (2020) and chargers will cut that charging time to less than half, or around 200 miles in just 10 minutes!

For some drivers, this may be adequate, especially if the vehicle is not driven much daily or is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV).</p><p>Though not required, in order to get the most out of any plug-in car’s electric mileage benefits, it is typically recommended to purchase a Level 2 home charging station.  This will recharge your EV two to six times faster than Level 1, and allow even ones with large batteries to always fully charge overnight.</p><p>The best time to get a Level 2 is just before receiving taking delivery of your vehicle, so the equipment can be already installed and ready for charging the moment you receive your electric car.</p>		\n		<p>To view and shop for home charging stations, visit the PlugStar website:​</p>		\n			<a href=\"https://plugstar.zappyride.com/chargers\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n						Shop at PlugStar\n					</a>\n		<p>Find a Certified Charging Equipment Installer with QMerit.</p>		\n			<a href=\"https://www.qmeritcharging.com/\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n						Visit QMerit\n					</a>\n			<h4>Energy New England</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n										5 Hampshire St., Suite 100</br>Mansfield, MA 02048\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										508-698-1200\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										508-698-0222\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"mailto:solutions@ene.org​\">						\n										solutions@ene.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://ene.org/\">						\n										www.ene.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://www.lelwd.com/\">						\n										www.lelwd.com\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>Website</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/test-drive/\">					Test Drive\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>social media</h4>		\n							<a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/LELWD/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n					Facebook\n				</a>','Charging Equipment','','inherit','closed','closed','','54-revision-v1','','','2019-06-26 23:58:35','2019-06-26 23:58:35','',54,'https://hgev.ene.org/54-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4186,2,'2019-06-26 23:59:18','2019-06-26 23:59:18','<h2>Charging Guide</h2>		\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/car-charging-basics/\" role=\"button\">\n						Car Charging Basics\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\" role=\"button\">\n						Charging Equipment​\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\" role=\"button\">\n						Home Installation Help​\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\" role=\"button\">\n						Rebates & Incentives (Charging)\n					</a>\n			<h3>Home Installation Help</h3>		\n		<h3><strong>How do I go about having a charger installed at my home?</strong></h3><p>If you don’t already have one, an electrician will need to wire a 240 volt circuit, including a 50-amp circuit breaker, from your house panel to a 240 volt NEMA 14-50 outlet or a hard-wired wall-mounted charging station in a location that is convenient for charging your car and the required length of cord.

In addition to this 100% torque right off the line, most electrics also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – A driving experience that hugs the corners! And finally, the ride is further improved by reduced overall cabin noise and less vibration.<br /><br /></li><li><strong>Reliability.</strong> “EVs have 10-times fewer moving parts than a gasoline powered car,” says advocacy group Plug in America. This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability. And because electric cars all have regenerative brakes, the brake pads and rotors don’t wear as quickly, and may even last the life of the vehicle with little or no maintenance. <a href=\"https://insideevs.com/chevy-volt-400000-miles-odometer-no-noticeable-battery-degradation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read about the plug-in electric car with over 400,000 miles!</a><br /><br /></li><li><strong>Convenience. </strong>An EV provides far greater convenience than the way we drive and fuel now. You charge an electric car like a cell phone — <a href=\"https://middleton-ev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">overnight, while you sleep</a>. It’s sort of like having a gas pump in your garage, but without the mess. So, with an electric car you wake up back on “Full” and always ready to drive. And for many drivers, the car comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway.<br /><br /></li><li><strong>Savings.</strong> Electric cars offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat. In many cases, after <a href=\"https://middleton-ev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">federal, state and other incentives</a> are factored in, this savings makes <a href=\"https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/05/new-study-finds-electric-vehicles-offer-lowest-total-cost-ownership/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EV costs less total to own over five years than a comparable gasoline only vehicle</a> This is in part because the average long-term price of electricity is less than half what gasoline would cost for the same driving, and also in part because of those far lower maintenance requirements (that will save you time as well, as less time will be spent at the auto shop).</li></ol><p><strong style=\"font-size: 16px;\">What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</strong></p><p> The purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

Money spent on electricity is not sent out of the country to foreign economies. This means that money instead stays in the domestic or even our local economy, which in turn equates to better local economic prospects for all, and also more local job creation.</li></ol><ol start=\"2\"><li><strong>Energy security.</strong> Much of the global supply of oil also comes from unstable regions of the world, and/or from nations that our relationship is more adversarial than friendly. Our military must protect the global oil supply routes around the world at a cost of billions of dollars, not only for the regular security but also oil-related wars, sabotage and terrorism remains a threat in part due to oil-related geopolitical issues.

Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric cars, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the car you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only cars, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which electric car you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before car shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p><p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p><p>Finally, there are two options for taking your electric car on longer trips.</p><ul><li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li><li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n					<p>In Massachusetts, an electric car can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable car. This due to the <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.</p><p><strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.</p><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.</p><p><strong>To learn more details about state and federal EV incentives, visit our <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down. In some cases, combined incentives can mean up to $15,000 off MSRP.

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric car is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, electric cars require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle an electric will likely cost significantly less total than even an average “economy” gasoline only car – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings, <a href=\"https://braintree-ev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">5. Can I expect good reliability from an electric car?</a>\n					<p>Electric cars are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An electric vehicle’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the car uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for the life of the vehicle. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a minute because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">6. Will the battery perform well for the life of the car?</a>\n					<p>Every new electric car’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">7. Does an electric car provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric car has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that electric cars typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p><p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Is an electric car as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric cars have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only car has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric cars are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric car?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric car and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric cars do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.

This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability.

In addition to this 100% torque right off the line, most electrics also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – A driving experience that hugs the corners! And finally, the ride is further improved by reduced overall cabin noise and less vibration.<br /><br /></li><li><strong>Reliability.</strong> “EVs have 10-times fewer moving parts than a gasoline powered car,” says advocacy group Plug in America. This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability. And because electric cars all have regenerative brakes, the brake pads and rotors don’t wear as quickly, and may even last the life of the vehicle with little or no maintenance. <a href=\"https://insideevs.com/chevy-volt-400000-miles-odometer-no-noticeable-battery-degradation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read about the plug-in electric car with over 400,000 miles!</a><br /><br /></li><li><strong>Convenience. </strong>An EV provides far greater convenience than the way we drive and fuel now. You charge an electric car like a cell phone — <a href=\"https://middleton-ev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">overnight, while you sleep</a>. It’s sort of like having a gas pump in your garage, but without the mess. So, with an electric car you wake up back on “Full” and always ready to drive. And for many drivers, the car comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway.<br /><br /></li><li><strong>Savings.</strong> Electric cars offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat. In many cases, after <a href=\"https://middleton-ev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">federal, state and other incentives</a> are factored in, this savings makes <a href=\"https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/05/new-study-finds-electric-vehicles-offer-lowest-total-cost-ownership/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EV costs less total to own over five years than a comparable gasoline only vehicle</a> This is in part because the average long-term price of electricity is less than half what gasoline would cost for the same driving, and also in part because of those far lower maintenance requirements (that will save you time as well, as less time will be spent at the auto shop).</li></ol><p><strong style=\"font-size: 16px;\">What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</strong></p><p> The purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

In fact, it usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep!

Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep!

Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n\nYes! This is in part because there are two types of electric cars, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.\n\nPHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the car you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.\n\nMost BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only cars, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.\n\nToday’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.\n\nTherefore, which electric car you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before car shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n\nIt usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.\n\nThe second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.\n\nFinally, there are two options for taking your electric car on longer trips.\n<ul>\n 	<li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li>\n 	<li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n\nIn Massachusetts, an electric car can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable car. This due to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.\n\n<strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.\n\n<strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.\n\n<strong>To learn more details about state and federal EV incentives, visit our&nbsp;<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong>\n\n<strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down. In some cases, combined incentives can mean up to $15,000 off MSRP. To learn more about how to take advantage of each of these rebates, incentives and special offers,&nbsp;<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.\n\n<a href=\"\">4. How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n\nOn average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric car is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, electric cars require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.\n\nIn fact, over the life of the vehicle an electric will likely cost significantly less total than even an average “economy” gasoline only car – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings,&nbsp;<a href=\"https://braintree-ev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.\n\n<a href=\"\">5. Can I expect good reliability from an electric car?</a>\n\nElectric cars are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An electric vehicle’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the car uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for the life of the vehicle. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a minute because there is no exhaust system to analyze.\n\n<a href=\"\">6. Will the battery perform well for the life of the car?</a>\n\nEvery new electric car’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.\n\n<a href=\"\">7. Does an electric car provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n\nThe amount of sheer acceleration that an electric car has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that electric cars typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.\n\nTo really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.\n\n<a href=\"\">8. Is an electric car as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n\nMost electric cars have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only car has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric cars are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)\n\n<a href=\"\">9. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric car?</a>\n\nAccording to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.\n\n<a href=\"\">10. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric car and its battery?</a>\n\nThe <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric cars do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.

Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric cars, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the car you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only cars, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which electric car you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before car shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p><p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p><p>Finally, there are two options for taking your electric car on longer trips.</p><ul><li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li><li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n					<p>In Massachusetts, an electric car can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable car. This due to the <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.</p><p><strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.</p><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.</p><p><strong>To learn more details about state and federal EV incentives, visit our <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down. In some cases, combined incentives can mean up to $15,000 off MSRP.

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric car is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, electric cars require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle an electric will likely cost significantly less total than even an average “economy” gasoline only car – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings, <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">5. Can I expect good reliability from an electric car?</a>\n					<p>Electric cars are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An electric vehicle’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the car uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for the life of the vehicle. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a minute because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">6. Will the battery perform well for the life of the car?</a>\n					<p>Every new electric car’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">7. Does an electric car provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric car has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that electric cars typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p><p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Is an electric car as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric cars have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only car has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric cars are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric car?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric car and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric cars do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.

And for many drivers, the car comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway.<br /><br /></li><li><strong>Savings.</strong> Electric cars offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat.

In fact, it usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! There are three levels of charging rate to choose from, depending upon your needs and lifestyle.\n\n<img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\">\n<h2>LEVEL 1 CHARGING\n\"REGULAR\" speed</h2>\n<h2>Examples: home overnight</h2>\n<p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-style: normal;\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"title\" data-pen-placeholder=\"Type Here...\">In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! The adapter comes with a cord and charger head that plugs into your EV. Once it is initially set up it is always ready and on standby, and then it only takes a few seconds to plug it in to your car in each night. It really is that easy! Level 1 works best for plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) with small batteries, and/or people who do not drive much each day, as it adds range of between 3 and 6 miles per hour of charging, or up to around 50 miles overnight.</p>\n										<img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\">\n<h2>LEVEL 2 CHARGING\n\"PLUS\" speed</h2>\n<h2>Examples: home, workplace, destination</h2>\nA Level 2 charging system consists of a 240 volt wiring circuit from your house electrical panel to a either a NEMA 14-50 outlet (much like the outlet into which you’d plug an electric stove or clothes dryer), or hard-wired to a wall-mounted EV charging station. The most common type of charging both private and public, Level 2 adds up to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type. This means that even the longest range electric cars will always get a full charge overnight using properly matched Level 2 equipment. Level 2 charging equipment can be purchased for as little as $200. The installation may only require minor work by an electrician or may require some upgrades to your panel or wiring.

Therefore, most charging stops would be only minutes at a time. For example, depending on model and station some vehicles are already capable of adding 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, and the next generation of vehicles (2020) and chargers will cut that charging time to less than half, or around 200 miles in just 10 minutes! Many new fast charging sites are being added every year.

There are many brands and models of public charging units, as well many different charging networks both nationally and regionally. There are basically two types of stations:\n<ol>\n 	<li><strong>Smart charging stations</strong>, also known as networked charging stations or connected stations. This typically require either membership, a card, or an app to access. They may or may not have a fee.</li>\n 	<li><strong>Non-networked charging stations</strong>. These do not require any membership to activate, and usually are free and just connect when you plug in, or may require an access code.</li>\n</ol>\nFinding out in advance (for example by using&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.plugshare.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PlugShare</a> or another online resource or app) can help you explore what public charging is near you and get any advance set up out of the way from the comfort of home.\n<h4>Energy New England</h4>\n<ul>\n 	<li>\n										5 Hampshire St., Suite 100\nMansfield, MA 02048</li>\n 	<li>\n										508-698-1200</li>\n 	<li>\n										508-698-0222</li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"mailto:solutions@ene.org​\">\nsolutions@ene.org\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://ene.org/\">\nwww.ene.org\n</a></li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://www.lelwd.com/\">\nwww.lelwd.com\n</a></li>\n</ul>\n<h4>Website</h4>\n<ul>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/test-drive/\">					Test Drive\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n</a></li>\n</ul>\n<h4>social media</h4>\n<a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/LELWD/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\nFacebook\n</a>','CHARGING GUIDE','','inherit','closed','closed','','20-revision-v1','','','2019-07-08 13:50:48','2019-07-08 13:50:48','',20,'https://hgev.ene.org/20-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4226,6,'2019-07-08 13:52:33','2019-07-08 13:52:33','<h2>Charging Guide</h2>		\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/car-charging-basics/\" role=\"button\">\n						Car Charging Basics\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\" role=\"button\">\n						Charging Equipment​\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\" role=\"button\">\n						Home Installation Help​\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\" role=\"button\">\n						Rebates & Incentives (Charging)\n					</a>\n			<h3>Rebates and Incentives (Charging)</h3>		\n		<article><section data-id=\"b868417\" data-element_type=\"section\"><hr /><h2>Save with LELWD\'s \"Dollar a Gallon\" EV Rewards</h2></section><section data-id=\"710be41\" data-element_type=\"section\"><p>Sign up for this valuable EV rewards program open to Littleton and Boxborough residents.

data-element_type=\"section\">Sign up for this valuable EV rewards program open to Littleton and Boxborough residents. Simply set your car to charge between 10 pm and 12 pm on weekdays and complete the enrollment process. You then earn $8 a month credit on your LELWD electric bill.

In addition to this 100% torque right off the line, most electrics also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – A driving experience that hugs the corners! And finally, the ride is further improved by reduced overall cabin noise and less vibration.</li>\n 	<li><strong>Reliability.</strong>&nbsp;“EVs have 10-times fewer moving parts than a gasoline powered car,” says advocacy group Plug in America. This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability. And because electric cars all have regenerative brakes, the brake pads and rotors don’t wear as quickly, and may even last the life of the vehicle with little or no maintenance.&nbsp;<a href=\"https://insideevs.com/chevy-volt-400000-miles-odometer-no-noticeable-battery-degradation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read about the plug-in electric car with over 400,000 miles!</a></li>\n 	<li><strong>Convenience.&nbsp;</strong>An EV provides far greater convenience than the way we drive and fuel now.

Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric cars, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the car you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only cars, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which electric car you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before car shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p><p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p><p>Finally, there are two options for taking your electric car on longer trips.</p><ul><li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li><li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n					<p>In Massachusetts, an electric car can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable car. This due to the <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.</p><p><strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.</p><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.</p><p><strong>To learn more details about state and federal EV incentives, visit our <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down. In some cases, combined incentives can mean up to $15,000 off MSRP.

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric car is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, electric cars require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle an electric will likely cost significantly less total than even an average “economy” gasoline only car – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select.

Can I expect good reliability from an electric car?</a>\n					<p>Electric cars are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An electric vehicle’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the car uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for the life of the vehicle. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a minute because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">6. Will the battery perform well for the life of the car?</a>\n					<p>Every new electric car’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">7. Does an electric car provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric car has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that electric cars typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p><p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Is an electric car as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric cars have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only car has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric cars are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric car?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric car and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric cars do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.
