EV Travel Tips for Whistler
- Bring your adapter: Especially if you're driving a Tesla or a less common model, as not all chargers offer universal plugs.
- Use an app: Tools like PlugShare, ChargeHub, or BC Hydro EV can help you check availability before you arrive.
- Be courteous: Move your vehicle once charged to free up the space for others.
- Plan ahead: In peak seasons, demand for EV chargers can be high—it's worth knowing where backup chargers are located.
