Benefits of electric vehicles
There have been improvements in EV technology in recent years. Current models are now much closer to traditional vehicles in terms of driving distance, reliability, and driver comfort.
As an alternative to petrol or diesel vehicles, switching to an EV offers:
- cheaper running costs
- improved air quality by reducing emissions of nitrogen dioxide and particulates
- reduced carbon emissions
- more affordable purchase costs through government grants
- greater choice of chargepoint locations as numbers continue to increase
