Are you driving an electric rental car from Adrem? You might sometimes encounter busy charging stations along the way. What does that mean for your trip, and what's the best way to respond? This article provides a clear overview with practical tips.
What do you do when a charging station is occupied?
- Wait a little while
Some drivers stay by their car for a while while it charges. In many cases, you can quickly connect as soon as the spot becomes available. - Find alternative charging points
Use apps like ANWB Onderweg or Chargemap to find nearby charging stations. This way, you avoid unnecessary waiting. - Plan ahead at fast chargers
Fast chargers along highways are popular, especially during holidays and peak travel times. Plan your charging times wisely to avoid waiting times.
How much does charging at busy charging stations cost?
Charging your electric rental car can vary by charging station, location, and provider. Fast chargers are generally more expensive than regular charging stations, but convenient if you want to get back on your way quickly. You'll usually see the current rate on the charging station's screen or in the accompanying app.
Tips for the road
- Start with sufficient charge
Make sure you leave with a fully charged battery, especially if you are driving to areas where charging stations are scarce.
- Avoid peak times
Charging at shopping malls, hotels, or along highways can be busy in the evenings or on weekends. If possible, choose a quieter time.
- Use multiple apps
This way you always have an alternative available when a charging station is occupied or broken.
What if you come to a standstill?
Don't panic. If your battery runs out, you can count on roadside assistance, just like with a gasoline car running out of fuel. Adrem will get you back on the road quickly.
