    We have ordered an EV and it needs to put into perspective if for instance you only have the use of an EV as a interim whilst work is being carried out by the garage there would be no charger at home to ensure a constant charging support.

    Now some EV do not have long range and some can exceed 200 miles, so it depends what distance you would cover over a weeks driving and then there is the choice of equipment fitted or added as an optional extra, the AP may reflect this scenario.

    Then there is the energy supply where some companies provide the opportunity to have a much reduced tariff overnight or indeed if you have solar panels fitted this also can reduce the overheads for charging.

    Having test driven Several EV i found them to be very comfortable and easy to drive however i would caution anyone who is not a litte tech savvy to get some help with setting up your preferences which in turn help in many respect with safe driving.

    Hope this helps in some way to ease your thoughts on EVs
