I’ll be purchasing one in the next couple of months and an wondering what the recommendation is if I don’t drive the car everyday. In fact, I drove about 7,000 miles per year and I’ll go for 5 days without driving the car.

What’s the best way to charge the battery but keep the longevity if the battery?

I’m assuming it’s not to keep it plugged in and charged to 80% the entire time. Perhaps, don’t plug the car in everyday and use it until I get down to 20-30% battery and then charge it up to 80%?
