Driving an EV means freedom. But whether you're a newbie or a seasoned driver, we all make some small, charming mistakes along the way!

Here are 5 tiny but important tips to make your journey even smoother:


                                    5 Adorable Mistakes EV Drivers Make on the Road (Don’t Be One of Them!)

1. Hitting the Road Without a Charging Plan
It's tempting to think, "I'll just find a charger along the way," just like we do with gas stations.
But especially on long trips, not planning your charging stops in advance can turn your adventure into a real gamble.

2. Letting Your Battery Percentage Drop Too Low
We all have that "I can make it a bit further!" feeling.
But EVs can sometimes consume more energy than expected when the battery gets below the last 10%.
Stay on the safe side and try to start charging before you hit 20%.

3. Walking Away Without Properly Plugging In
Sometimes, in a hurry, we think we’ve plugged in — but we actually haven’t!
Leaving without double-checking the connection can lead to an unpleasant surprise.
Always check the station’s light indicators to be sure!

4. Waiting Forever at Busy Charging Stations
Some stations can get really crowded.
Checking the station’s availability ahead of time can save you a lot of stress.
Don't forget to use the Lixhium app to see real-time occupancy status!

5. Underestimating Weather Conditions
Extreme heat or cold can significantly affect your range.
Before hitting the road, it’s wise to consider not just your destination, but the weather forecast too.

Instead of a journey filled with little mishaps, enjoy a smooth and relaxed drive by keeping an eye on these simple tips
