3. EV TIP: TRAVEL SICKNESS
The trick is to reduce the number of small accelerations and decelerations when driving your EV. While one foot driving is great at harvesting energy, it can be difficult to drive in a neutral position without constantly slowing down and increasing speed even if these changes are relatively minor. Reducing the cars regeneration setting and power setting will smooth out the driving experience for passengers and hopefully stop that travel sickness feeling!
4. EV ANNOUNCEMENT: THE COOL DOWN
