Is Electric Right for Me?

The facts you need to know about converting to an electric vehicle.



Finding Your Nearest Charging Point

Choosing an electric vehicle (EV) or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) comes with the important task of identifying where to charge it. Thankfully, a variety of charging options are available to meet your needs.

Home Charging: Your Reliable Solution

Most EV owners—about 80%—prefer charging their vehicles at home due to the convenience and accessibility it provides. You can easily plug in using your vehicle’s charging cable, or you might consider installing a wallbox for faster charging that makes overnight charging simple.

Workplace Charging: Convenient Access

For many EV and PHEV drivers, workplaces can serve as an additional charging location. Many companies are recognizing the importance of sustainability and are installing charging stations, which may include both standard outlets and faster charging options for employees.

Public Charging: Always Within Reach

In the UK, you’ll find that public charging stations are widely available, making it easy to charge on the go. With over 48,450 charging points scattered across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, you can rest assured that you’ll have access to charging facilities as needed, with new stations continually being introduced.




How far do you drive daily?

EVs possess what is commonly known as range, which refers to the maximum distance and electric vehicle can travel upon a single charge. PHEVs have an electric range too, though this is considerably shorter.

Wherever you drive, you should have no issues with range anxiety. a team that describes a fear of running out of electric power. For instance, the new ID7 offers a range of up to 435 miles. To give an even better idea on range, the average electric vehicle range is 181 miles (but of course the actual range will depend on the vehicle and trim you choose).
Even if your journey is longer than this, you'll have plenty of opportunities to enjoy rapid-charging top-ups along the way.



Advantages of Ownership

Owning an electric, plug-in hybrid, or hybrid vehicle comes with numerous benefits. Here are just a few to consider:

Cost Savings

Electric vehicles (EVs) are particularly economical to operate. Even if you opt for a plug-in hybrid (PHEV), the electric motor helps improve fuel efficiency, especially during city driving. Hybrid vehicles also tend to be more efficient compared to traditional gasoline-powered cars.

Lower Maintenance

An EV's powertrain has fewer moving parts than that of a combustion engine, which means there’s less that can go wrong. As a result, you’ll likely encounter fewer repair bills.

Government Benefits
