FAQs

WHERE CAN I CHARGE AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE?

For the average commuter, most charging happens at home (overnight, similar to your smartphones). DC Fast Charging stations are available at many commercial and public spaces, including office buildings, restaurants, shopping centers, train stations and more. For the times when you need to charge outside of the home, GMC EV drivers have access to over 250,000 public chargers through the myGMC mobile app,* including 23,500 Tesla* Supercharger locations across North America.

ARE ELECTRIC CARS CHEAPER THAN GAS?

EVs benefit from potentially reduced operating costs, including savings on fuel, especially if you charge at home. There may also be available state and local EV tax and utility incentives. Plus, electric vehicles do not need oil changes, meaning fewer scheduled maintenance visits.

ARE EV EMISSIONS LOWER THAN GAS VEHICLES?

Electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe emissions.

WHAT ARE THE MAIN EV BENEFITS?

Electric vehicle ownership is full of benefits. Among them are the ability to eliminate trips to the gas station and zero tailpipe emissions. There may also be state and local EV incentives available. Plus, charging your EV at home is convenient and may be more economical than using DC Fast Charging. With available 240-volt charging, you can plug in while you sleep, and in most cases, wake up to a full charge* every day.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO CHARGE AN ELECTRIC CAR?

A lot of factors go into the cost to charge an EV, including where you live, what time of day you charge and whether you use home charging or DC Fast Charging.

HOW WILL I KNOW IF AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE IS RIGHT FOR ME?

When it comes to determining whether an electric vehicle is a good choice, it’s important to factor in the distance of your commute, if your daily driving needs are within the vehicle’s range and if you’re able to charge your vehicle from home or at work. You should also consider the cost of having a home charger installed.

DO I NEED TO DO ANYTHING TO MY HOUSE TO BE READY FOR OWNING AN EV?

To determine what your home may need, you should contact a professional home charging installer. GMC has collaborated with Qmerit to provide home charging installers in your area to handle outlet installation and pulling any necessary permits required by your city or state.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER BENEFITS OF OWNING AN EV?

In addition to fuel savings, reduced vehicle maintenance, purchasing an electric vehicle can help to create a more sustainable future, thanks to the increased usage of emerging technologies and the ability to recycle used EV batteries.

HOW CAN I FIND CHARGING STATIONS IN MY LOCAL AREA?

Pair your GMC EVs with the available myGMC Mobile App* to allow you access to the following functionality: 

  • See your range at a glance
  • Find chargers and see their availability in real time
  • Start a charging session at select charging networks within the myGMC Mobile App*
  • Intelligently plan your routes with the optimal charging stops along the way
