Energy Management for Electric Transports
All vehicles operate on finite battery reserves displayed through the lower-left HUD element during operation:




Recharge occurs automatically through garage storage, facility repairs, or proximity to PCC-constructed generators. Captured hostile vehicles exclusively rely on generator charging.
Notably, power grids maintain battery levels until departure. Prudent energy management remains critical outside Chiral Network coverage, as solar recharging operates at reduced efficiency for certain models.
