How to Plan a Long EV Highway Trip in India: The Complete Guide
Combine fast chargers, overnight stays and realistic range estimates to make your first long EV trip fun instead of stressful.
Essential Charging Tips
Keep Charge at 20–80%
Avoid charging to 100% daily or letting it drop below 10%. This habit alone extends battery life by years.
Limit DC Fast Charging
Use fast chargers for long trips only. Frequent DC fast charging degrades battery chemistry faster over time.
Charge Overnight at Home
AC home charging is gentler on your battery and cheaper per unit. Set a schedule to finish before morning.
Avoid Charging in Peak Heat
In Indian summers, plug in during cooler parts of the day or night to prevent thermal battery stress.
Use Your EV App
Set charging schedules via your EV's app to charge during off-peak hours and protect battery health automatically.
Install a Dedicated Wallbox
A proper AC wallbox is safer and 3x faster than a standard socket. One-time cost that pays off quickly.
