Renting an Electric Car on Nantucket Island: Your Go-To Guide
If you’re planning a trip to Nantucket Island, an EV rental from Affordable Rentals is one of the smartest ways to experience the island’s historic streets and scenic beaches. Here are some insider tips to help you make the most of your Nantucket adventure in an electric car rental and explore with confidence.
Why Choose an EV Rental?
Nantucket’s compact layout and accessible roads make it ideal for electric vehicles. Charging stations continue to pop up across the island, and driving electric means a quieter ride with the added benefit of reducing your carbon footprint. You’ll find that most attractions, like Brant Point Lighthouse and Cisco Beach, are well within the range of modern EVs.
Charging Your Electric Car Rental
Before you head out, it’s smart to get familiar with local charging options. Nantucket offers public charging stations at sites like the Nantucket Memorial Airport, Nobadeer Fields, and Surfside Beach. Keeping track of charging locations is as easy as installing apps like PlugShare or ChargePoint. Our team at Affordable Rentals can also point out the closest charging points and answer your questions.
Picking the Best Vehicle for Your Trip
An electric car is great for paved roads, but if you plan to go off the beaten path, consider a Jeep rental or Bronco rental for your vacation. We’ll make sure you have the correct permits for beach access, and we can give you the inside scoop on navigating the island.
Start Your Adventure with Affordable Rentals
At Affordable Rentals, we recommend you book your reservations in advance. This is helpful if you’re planning a family vacation to Nantucket during the summer tourist season. We especially recommend booking a BMW i3S for a smooth and fun-filled ride.
