Your Guide to Home Charging an EV

Charging your EV at home is one of the great joys of owning an electric car. Using a home charger is the easiest, most efficient, and most practical way to keep your battery topped up.  Whether it’s a full tank of gas or a full battery charge, very few of us use all of our range during a day of driving. This means you can plug in your EV at night and wake up in the morning with plenty of power to get you where you need to go. Here are some tips to get the most out of your home charger.  Tip 1: Install a Level 2 DC Charger These home chargers give you more power, more quickly. They make it easier to top off your vehicle quickly when needed. And, because you have to charge for less time, you can do all your charging in the off-peak hours when electricity is cheapest.  Tip 2: Choose When to Charge VinFast’s app allows you to choose when you want to charge your EV. You can set your vehicle to charge automatically during off-peak times only, so you pay less for electricity.  Tip 3: Charge to 80% Modern lithium-ion batteries don’t…

EV Trends to Look out for in 2023

The exciting pace of Electric Vehicle (EV) technology is just part of the buzz and energy surrounding the segment. With even more cars entering the market, there are so many storylines to watch. Here are four emerging EV trends you can expect to see in 2023.  Battery Subscription Programs  Batteries are a major component of any electric vehicle. They’re also the biggest and most difficult to dispose of at the end of their life. VinFast aims to make battery maintenance and replacement a non-issue for EV drivers with its innovative subscription program. This program allows you to pay monthly for the use of your battery, which will be replaced as soon as it drops to 70% of its original capacity for holding a charge.  Increasing Demand Due to High Gas Prices  Fuel prices continue to rise, putting the pinch on drivers with conventional internal combustion engines (ICE). This will push demand for EVs, especially as range and charging speeds continue to improve.  A Focus on Recycling  We’re already seeing more and more drivers asking about the end-of-life for batteries, and what that might mean for the environment. Rapid development in battery recycling technology, including the VinFast investment in Li-Cycle’s Spoke and Hub system,…

Why VinFast Uses Li-ion Batteries In Its EVs

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are one of the most popular types of battery for use in EVs. They’re also used in consumer electronics, laptops and other portable devices. The key advantages to Li-ion batteries include their high energy density, low self-discharge rate and long cycle life. Below we’ll discuss each of these characteristics and why they make Li-ion batteries so desirable for use in consumer electronics products.  The ability to store large amounts of electricity at a low weight is especially useful for EVs since it allows them to travel further between charges than combustion engines do on gasoline or diesel fuel alone. Battery Cost Li-ion batteries have a high initial cost, but they’re cheaper than nickel cadmium batteries. The cost of Li-ion batteries is expected to decrease as technology improves. Energy Density One of the most important things to consider when choosing a battery is its energy density. Energy density, or power density, is the amount of stored energy in a battery. It’s measured in watt-hours per liter (Wh/L) or watt-hours per kilogram (Wh/kg). Li-ion batteries provide exceptional capacity with the highest energy density in the rechargeable-battery market (100–265 Wh/kg). This makes charging a Li-ion battery simpler, faster, and more…

5 Questions to Ask Before Buying an EV

In 2021, the number of electric vehicle sales increased to a record-breaking 6.6 million. By the end of 2021, there were around 16.5 million electric vehicles on the road worldwide, which was triple the number in 2018. Are you thinking about jumping on the bandwagon? Here are five important questions to ask before you purchase an EV. Question 1: Is the Range Sufficient? Make sure an EV’s range is at least enough for your outings and everyday commute. It’s best to consider an electric vehicle that can run for more than 200 miles on a single charge, like VinFast’s VF8 or VF9, which have an enhanced battery range of 277 to 369 miles. Question 2: How and Where Will I Charge My EV? For Level 1 charging, you can plug your vehicle into a standard 110-volt wall outlet. For faster and more convenient Level 2 charging, consider having a 240-volt service installed within your garage. You should also look for nearby public charging stations in public parking lots, city streets, or within new-car dealerships. Question 3: Should I Purchase a New or Used EV? While the lower price of a used EV might seem tempting, consider the added value and peace of mind that a new…

A Primer On EV Fast Charging Technology

Electric vehicles (EVs) are great for the environment and for your wallet, but there’s one thing that makes owning an EV difficult—how long it takes to charge.  There are two main types of chargers for EVs—Level 1 (120V) and Level 2 (240V). While both can take hours if you’re using them at home, they’re nearly useless on road trips since there aren’t enough stations to support drivers who rely solely on charging their vehicle while traveling.  Luckily, there’s another option—DC Fast Charging stations that can charge your vehicle up to 80% in 30 minutes or less! We’ll explain how this technology works so you can decide if it’s right for you. The infrastructure is not yet in place for EV fast charging to be as ubiquitous as gas stations are today. It’s getting better—the market has more than tripled in the last few years thanks to growing demand, but according to Charge Point, America still needs nearly 15x more public chargers to meet its energy needs. In this article, we’ll explain how a charger creates electricity for an EV and then focus our discussion on Level 3 DC Fast Charging systems (DCFC). Different EVs have different capacities for charging speeds;…
