    Charging from 0 to 100% really shouldn’t be the goal here.

    Ideally you would be charging to about 80% for just daily use, and only going 100% if you are planning a longer trip.

    Unlike a gas car, you don’t want to wait until it gets to 0% before you start charging it. Just plug it in when you get home and it’ll recoup whatever you used that day.

      You dont want to do that in a gas car either. A lot of the impurities in the gas settle out to the bottom of the gas tank, if you run your vehicle low on gas its easier for that layer to be agitated and your engine takes those impurities instead.
