Living with an Electric Car: What to Expect

Electric vehicles (EVs) are revolutionising the way we drive, offering lower running costs, eco-friendly benefits, and a smooth, quiet ride. But what is it really like to live with an electric car in places like Oakham, Leicester, Nottingham, and Grantham?

Charging at Home and on the Go

One of the biggest adjustments when switching to an EV is charging. Most EV owners install an at home charging point, which makes overnight charging convenient. Public charging infrastructure is expanding rapidly across the UK, with fast chargers available at motorway service stations, supermarkets, and city centers, making it easier than ever to own an EV.

Range and Daily Driving

Modern EVs like the Volkswagen ID.4, Nissan Leaf, and Hyundai Ioniq 5 offer impressive ranges, often exceeding 250 miles per charge. Whether commuting from Grantham to Leicester or making short city trips, an EV can easily fit into your daily routine, and with that impressive mile range there is no need to worry about weather you've got enough charge for your journey.

Lower Running Costs

Electric cars have significantly lower running costs than petrol or diesel vehicles. Charging an EV at home overnight can cost as little as a few pounds compared to filling up a petrol tank. Additionally, servicing costs are reduced due to fewer moving parts and no oil changes.
