Debunking Common EV Myths

With the Honda Prologue EV arriving in 2024, you might be wondering if a Honda EV is the right vehicle for you. If you’re in the midst of EV shopping, it can be hard to separate the truth from the myths about driving an EV. At Lester Glenn Honda, we’re debunking those common myths so you can shop confidently.

EVs Are Slow

You may have heard the myth that electric vehicles just aren’t as fast as cars with gasoline-powered engines. In fact, EV models are often much quicker off the line and can typically hit comparable speeds. Because they start at maximum torque, rather than building torque with speed, they impress on 0-60 times and quarter-mile runs.

You Have to Worry About Range

Most drivers spend the majority of their time close to home, especially when commuting or taking care of the kids, which means you’ll be able to use your EV model for local driving needs with peace of mind. Even on longer trips, however, you can rely on the several hundred miles of electric range that is becoming more common with new models.

EVs Are Expensive

EV technology is becoming more available, so models are becoming more affordable than ever. There are also savings when you own an EV, like savings on fuel and service costs since EV models require no gas and have fewer service needs. You may also be eligible for some tax credits with ownership.
