You may find that different city and town councils offer incentives for electric cars entering their centres. Parking fees can sometimes be reduced or even free. Some councils offer reduced cost permits for residents or businesses using EVs. You may also find that charging is free in a city if you are a local resident.
If you are visiting, and need to charge, you can often plugin for as long as you need to recharge, but it's good etiquette that you don't hog the charger as others may need to use it.
Look online before visiting a town. Use keywords in your search .ie. [city name], electric car, free parking. Alternatively many mapping apps will do the job for you. Our favourites are Zap-Map and A Better Route Planner.
