Electric Vehicles

For Drivers

• Charging before return:
  
  
  • Return the EV with the same battery charge level it had at pickup.
  • If you return the car with less charge, the owner may charge an incidental fee for recharging.
    
    
• Plan charging ahead:
  
  
  • Use charging stations along your route to avoid running out of charge.
  • Confirm with the owner what options are best for the vehicle.
    
    
• Know the mileage range:
  
  • EVs vary in range depending on model and battery health. Review the listing and confirm limits with the owner when booking.
    
    

For Owners

• Vehicle readiness:
  
  • Ensure your EV is fully charged and ready for pickup.

• • Provide renters with the charging cable and adapter if available.
    
    
• Listings:
  
  • Clearly state the estimated mileage range and any restrictions.
  • Add details about compatible charging networks or recommended charging apps.
    
    
• Returns:
  
  • Inspect the charge level at return.
  • If it’s lower than at pickup, you may submit an incidental charge to recover recharging costs.
    
    

Best Practices

• Drivers should review listing descriptions carefully for charge rules and mileage limits.
• Owners should include clear photos and details of charging ports, cables, and adapters.
• Both owners and drivers should communicate about charging expectations before the trip begins.
