How to plan a road trip with an electric vehicle… that’s a big question on a lot of drivers’ minds in Collegeville when they consider going electric. How long does an electric vehicle need to charge? Where do I charge an electric vehicle? There are a lot of questions and we at Wynn Volkswagen want to answer all of them, so sit tight and let Wynn Volkswagen, the home of the Volkswagen ID.4, answer them all for you.

How to Travel with an Electric Vehicle

Unlike an internal combustion engine, the charging process takes a little longer than a fill-up. One important distinction for Phoenixville road trippers is the difference between Level 2 and Level 3. How long does an electric vehicle need to charge? Level 2 chargers will give you 75 to 100 miles in about half an hour, but Level 3 can give you the full charge in not much more time than that. If you’re wondering where to charge an electric vehicle, there are plenty of online resources to guide you to the nearest Level 3 charger.

A cross-country trip with an electric vehicle requires a little bit of planning. A road trip with an EV requires you take regular stops to get your vehicle charged. However, this is a great opportunity to grab a meal, maybe see the sights, and take a more scenic route to where you’re headed.

Volkswagen ID.4 Range Facts

You can get upwards of 250 miles on the VW ID.4 model. If you drive at an average of 75 miles per hour, that means you’ll be on the road for more than three hours before you need your next charge. And with Level 3 charging getting your vehicle ready in less than an hour, you’ll be back on the road before you know it.
