How EVs make driving easier

It is clear that the electric car revolution is fully underway as they are much more common on the roads these days and the sales have been steadily rising over the last few years.

This is for good reason as electric cars can help people to make significant long-term savings, plus they are also a great way to protect the planet (something that people are becoming increasingly passionate about).

Electric car owners are also finding that this type of vehicle can be a lot easier to drive as well and this post will look at why this is.

The stop & go engine

Electric cars are a lot easier to drive than traditional cars largely due to the stop-and-go engine. They work in a similar manner to an automatic in that you do not have to change gears and there is no clutch pedal, so you simply select “Drive” and then control the vehicle with the accelerator and brake pedals.

This means that EVs are impossible to stall, you do not have to fiddle around with gears and they can be a lot easier to drive in traffic due to the “stop and go” nature. This means that the car also has immediate torque, so it is easy to speed up and also easy to speed down as the car will slow down as soon as you lift your foot off the accelerator (this will also help to recharge the battery).

There is also no engine noise with this type of car, which means that the driving experience can be a lot more peaceful and less stressful.

EV tech

Another way that electric vehicles are easier to drive than traditional vehicles is that they come with all of the best and latest technology. In an electric car, you are likely to find the current best safety features that can make driving easier, safer and less stressful.

This is likely to include tech such as automatic emergency braking (AEB), lane keep assist and blind spot monitoring. Pioneering vehicles like the Tesla Model 3 will come with all kinds of incredible technology that can greatly enhance the driving experience and make it a lot easier for you.

If you are interested in an electric car but not quite ready to make the purchase then you might want to arrange a lease on an electric car first. This can be a great way to see how driving an EV is easier without making a full commitment.

Driving an electric car is a great way to make savings as well as reduce your environmental impact, but these are not the only reasons to make the switch. Motorists are also finding that electric cars are a lot easier to drive and provide a more enjoyable experience behind the wheel.
