New models and a better infrastructure: In 2020, electromobility should continue to pick up speed. Interested parties should pay attention to some details when buying an electric car.

No more gasoline or diesel smell, no annoying vibrations. E-cars have more advantages than just the environmental impact of zero local emissions. This year, new models come onto the market in various price ranges and vehicle categories. But before anyone starts looking for an electric car, there are a few things to consider.

If you are considering buying an electric car, you should first consider how and where the electric car should be charged. “The usage behavior is different from that of combustion engines,” says Stefan Heimlich, Chairman of the German Auto Club Europe (ACE). Electric vehicles are mostly charged at home. In Switzerland, only about 20 percent of e-car loads take place in public spaces, writes the Touring Club Switzerland (TCS) on its website.

According to the TCS, there are currently more than 3 in Switzerland’600 charging stations in public spaces with outputs between 3.7 kW (slow charging) and 150 kW (quick charging). “Basically, the faster it has to go, the higher the costs,” writes the TCS. The website “ichtankestrom.ch” from the Federal Office of Energy provides an overview of the public charging stations (type of connection, maximum output) and shows whether they are currently available.

Electric cars for city dwellers – does that make sense and is it even possible?

In the fourth episode of our video series on the future of electromobility, we look at what needs to happen in cities to make them more attractive for electric cars.

How quickly can you get a full charge?

Experts advise you to take a close look at and question the technical data of electric vehicles. In addition to the power and battery size, the electric car is also about the charging speed. This includes charging with alternating or direct current, and above all whether it is single-phase or three-phase.

Depending on the brand and model, the so-called onboard charger in the electric vehicle cannot transport the electricity from the wallbox into the car quickly enough, so that the charging speed is reduced. In the vehicle, the alternating current from the network is converted into direct current for storage in the battery. If the onboard charger is weak, the charging capacity cannot be fully utilized.

E-cars should therefore have at least a three-phase charger, even if it costs extra for some cars. Direct current flows directly in high-speed charging stations on trunk roads, here the onboard charger plays no restrictive role.

Electric cars are coming! – Faster than expected?

Less than 3 percent of newly registered cars in Switzerland are currently powered by an electric drive. But by 2022 it should be 15 percent. With the Tesla 3, an electric car made it to the top of the list of newly registered vehicles for the first time in March 2019. Is the boom beginning now?

How much range do I really need?

The question of the desired range is still associated with certain reservations in e-cars. If you consider exactly how many kilometers are actually covered by the vehicle per day, you will find that it is the way to work or shopping – and of course back. The “fear of range” is often unfounded, say experts. What is done during the day can easily be recharged at night.

Even though smaller vehicles for the city usually have a smaller battery and therefore a shorter range, cars in this category make sense. Solid and good electric cars are available from around CHF 22,000 (Citroen C-Zero, Mitsubishi I-MIEV). The Seat Mii electric, Skoda Citigo E IV or VW E-Up also offer a realistic range of almost 200 kilometers. A large battery provides more range, but it also has to be charged longer.

Of course, those who are interested should also ask how often they drive long distances or whether they want to go on vacation with the vehicle. In this case, you should inform yourself about charging options on the route before starting your journey.

Operating costs are lower for the electric car

With an electric car, the operating costs are reduced by up to 60 percent because maintenance is significantly lower and electricity costs are lower than the costs for gasoline or diesel. In addition, there are some funding opportunities in Switzerland that vary in size depending on the canton or municipality. The interest group “Swiss eMobility” offers an overview on its website.

Important: Affordable technology and a large dealer network

Jens Dralle, Head of Test and Technology at the German magazine “Auto, Motor und Sport”, suspects that the new VW ID3 and Opel Corsa-E models, which are also available in Switzerland, will change the market. «There are two popular models from manufacturers with a large dealer network. In addition there is a wide range of variants and an acceptable price. »

That will bring movement to the e-market. Because in addition to the technical details and the right car for the respective usage behavior, affordable technology and the right dealer nearby are important purchase criteria.

In parallel to the new models, other manufacturers are ramping up their production of vehicles that have already been presented, so that for the first time there will be a larger range. Dralle finds small electric cars particularly interesting. “They take e-mobility where it currently makes the most sense: in urban regions,” says Dralle.
