The benefits of electric cars

There are several key benefits of switching to an all-electric vehicle, these are detailed out below.  We have also created an electric vehicle guide to help you decipher your way through the electric vehicle market. In this guide we answer your common questions around EV in one place so you can make an informed decision. 

Emissions – an electric engine has 0 emissions, switching to an electric car will have a huge impact on your carbon footprint, reducing it significantly. With the reduction in emissions comes additional benefits and costs that can be avoided, including road tax and clean air zone charges. Electric cars don’t have to pay either of these costs, if you live or frequently travel to clean air zones avoiding these charges can save you a significant amount of money over time. 

Fuel cost – Petrol and Diesel are expensive, they use fossil fuels that are in short supply, the cost of fossil-based fuels is likely to increase as these resources become harder to obtain. Electric vehicles cost far less to charge than their petrol or diesel equivalent in miles, home charging using an overnight tariff is one of the cheapest and most convenient ways to charge any electric vehicle. 

Engine noise – the noise of the engine when driving or travelling by car is something we have all become accustomed to, electric cars are comparatively silent. This does take some getting used to but makes journeys that bit more enjoyable and less stressful.
