Household vehicles were driven an average of 64.6 minutes on a typical day in 2022 (including all trips made that day) and parked for the remainder of the time (95%). Drivers in all Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) averaged between 61 minutes and 68 minutes per day with the longest driving time of 67.6 minutes for those in MSAs with 1-3 million people. Household vehicles being parked for 95% of a 24-hour day offers opportunity for EV charging.
I’m pretty much in the same boat, but I charge pretty much every other day since I have a 35 kw leaf and drive minimum 30 miles a day, but it can nearly fully charge over night. I actually purchased a charger that has an adjustable power output to charge slower at night, for various reasons. I go to a fast charger maybe once a month for a quick boost since I don’t have 240v set up at home yet (I’m lazy and it works fine, it’s hard to justify getting it installed when it costs <$50 a year at a public charger for those boosts).
I’m not sure if it’s all that much better for the battery to charge slower than the full level 1, but my battery has been sitting at ~75% capacity since I bought it used a few years ago and I’ve put about 30,000 miles on it since then.
I drive 20 miles each way twice a week for work so the 180-200 miles at 80% is plenty for the normal week with my id.4. I think thats pretty expected range for my 3yo car, lol.
