One of the primary concerns for any EV driver is maximizing battery efficiency. The more energy your vehicle consumes, the shorter your range between charges, and in the Texas heat, the air conditioning system can be one of the biggest energy drains. Running the AC on full blast to cool the interior saps precious battery power, which could be used to extend your range.

Installing high quality ceramic window tint from Blue Ocean Auto Spa can help EV owners conserve energy by keeping the car cooler even in extreme conditions. By blocking a significant portion of the sun's heat, this nanoparticle tint technology reduces the need for heavy air conditioning use, allowing drivers to maintain a comfortable cabin temperature without overworking the vehicle’s battery.

A study conducted by the U.S. Department of Energy found that using window tints with high heat rejection can reduce air conditioning use by up to 15%. For EV drivers, this means you can stretch your battery’s capacity, adding overall efficiency AND valuable miles to your range.
