Get the Most Out of Your EV Journey: An Insider's Guide to Google Built In
Welcome to the forum! Thanks for sharing that guide, it's great to have it saved on my phone. I am currently driving an F150 and soon will be getting a 2022 Volvo C40 Fjord Blue. It was built on January 13 and is expected to arrive by the end of March. This will be my first EV and I chose it because it allows me to sit up higher than your typical sedan, is not too large, and has an online ordering process with good communication.
I'm sure each owner has their own set of requirements when choosing an EV, but for me the C40 was a perfect fit. I'm not concerned about not having a rear windshield wiper as most of my cars/trucks did not have one. My only hope for the C40 would be a continuing effort to increase the speed of charging.
For those living in areas where it snows often, like western NY near Lake Erie and Ontario, not having a rear wiper could mean needing to change habits to backing into spots so that it's faster to leave. Over time, owners can figure out the optimal levels to charge at for their trips.
The Google Built In Guide is a great resource for those looking to purchase an EV and understand the features available. It provides information about different models, charging options, and more.

It covers topics such as how to maximize range, how to save money on charging costs, and how to use the car’s features effectively. The guide also provides advice on maintenance and safety, helping owners keep their vehicles running smoothly and safely.
Overall, the Google Built In Guide is an invaluable resource for anyone considering purchasing an EV or already owning one. It provides detailed information about different models and features, as well as helpful tips on how to get the most out of your EV experience.
