What do you drive today?

Pick your current EV to see what you'd gain, give up and keep by switching — including how many more charging stations your next car could use.

Switching electric cars — common questions

Grounded in how owners actually decide.

Is it worth upgrading to a newer electric car?

Often, yes — but not always. New EVs typically bring far faster 10–80% charging, heat pumps for winter range and wider fast-charger access, while your current car may still cover your daily loop fine. Each guide below shows the exact gains and give-ups for your model.

Should I sell my EV or keep it?

EV batteries lose only ~1.5–2% of range per year, so keeping a healthy car is rational. The case for switching starts when you charge to 100% daily just to feel safe, or when fast-charging stops dictate your routes.

Is CHAdeMO being phased out?

Networks are retiring CHAdeMO while CCS grows — PlugSphere counts 38,000+ CCS DC fast-charge stations versus a shrinking CHAdeMO network. Leaf and Soul EV owners feel this first; their guides cover it in detail.
