1. Shopping
Forgot to buy the elements for your holiday? Many charging stations, like supermarkets, provide charging points for their customers.
Generally speaking, when you recharge your electric car, you'll be back for a few minutes, or even a few hours. To make the most of this time, if you find a shopping centre or small shop nearby, you can go and do a bit of shopping.
2. Watch a film or series
Maybe there's a series or film you've always wanted to watch, but haven't really followed.
While you're waiting, you can watch your favourite series or film again. If you are equipped with a latest-generation electric car, a central screen is integrated with an internet connection and a host of functions, as on the Tesla Model Y or Model 3.
You'll be able to access several streaming platforms for series, films and documentaries. An episode of around forty minutes is more than enough to recharge your electric vehicle.
3. Read a book
After a good drive surrounded by screens (dashboard screen, central screen), resting those eyes doesn't hurt. To do this, you can completely disconnect from the screens by reading a book while your vehicle is charging.
4. Going for a walk
If you've stopped off at a small park with charging points available, you can take the opportunity to walk around while your vehicle is charging.
