My current employer is moving offices quite a distance. I am debating or not staying with the company based on a number of factors. One thing is due to the distance, in order to make it to the new office and back 2 days a week, I would need to charge the car to 100% especially in the winter (I am in southern Ontario) as the office does not have a charger to use.

The office is already a really significant distance from my house and I don’t want to spend an already 2 hour commute stopping at a charger on the way home.

So my real question is, is it really bad to charge to 100% twice a week or will the degradation on my battery start to worsen quicker?

      Blows my mind how many EV owners buy an EV and then proceed to be scared shitless of using them. This mentality will only drive people away from owning EVs.

        This is the issue though. The days of the early adopters is coming to a close but there is still too much “complication” surrounding charge levels, charging speed and general “what do I do”
