High Mileage EVs
Electric vehicles (EVs) have transitioned from a niche market to mainstream acceptance, driven by advancements in technology and growing environmental awareness. One of the significant concerns for potential EV buyers has been the long-term reliability of these vehicles, particularly those with high mileage. Recent data and studies have shown that high-mileage electric cars are not only feasible but also reliable.
Home Charging Without a Driveway, is it Possible?
Waking up with a full pack of electrons in the car is something most current Electric Vehicle (EV) owners take for granted. Unlike what internal combustion engine (ICE) owners think, EV owners actually save time when charging compared to an ICE car. EV owners don’t have to make weekly trips out of their way to find cheap fuel, stand around in the cold breathing in toxic fumes while filling up, and then finally pay the cashier the best part of a hundred notes for the privilege.
Fairer Charging Costs for Electric Vehicles: Public Charging Network
As the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) accelerates, the infrastructure supporting this shift must evolve to meet new demands. Central to this evolution is the public charging network, which plays a critical role in the widespread adoption of EVs. However, a significant challenge remains: ensuring that the costs associated with public charging are fair and consistent. With a growing number of drivers relying on public charging stations, it is imperative to address the financial aspects to promote a seamless transition to greener transportation.

While Octopus Energy are well known utility providers, they also offer a car charging app and many other EV related services. The octopus Electroverse card is one of those such services. It offers the ability to charge on the vast majority of car charging networks with the use of one card
The Surprising Culprit Behind Electric Car Breakdowns: The 12V Battery
As the automotive industry continues to embrace the electric revolution, electric vehicles (EVs) have become increasingly popular. Even though it is very uncommon, a significant proportion of electric car breakdowns are attributed to a seemingly mundane component – the 12V battery.
EV Route Planning
By far the most common question I get is, ‘when I go on a long distance, that journey to Cornwall lets say, how I know where to charge’. For a while now we have been used to getting in a car, setting the destination in the satnav and just driving.
BYD Dolphin
BYD – Dolphin the electric car that we’ve all been asking for?
I’m not alone in wanting there to be a good range of cheaper, smaller electric cars available to on the market.
Currently the market is full of larger premium vehicles that come with a large price tag too. While this has been
enough to get a lot of people into EVs the simple truth is that there is a large market of people who can’t and won’t
spent £50,000 plus on a car.
Used EVs for £15,000 to £20,000
As promised, this time I said I would go through my recommendations for the £15,000 and
£20,000 budget. At this price point you have a lot of choice at all sizes and ranges. This
means that general recommendations are harder due more good options being available.
