I think the huge difference is if you can charge at home at the lowest / night rates and if you constantly drive long distances.
As someone who did 36,000 miles on EV since April 2024 I can definitely tell that Motability customers who cannot charge at home at lowest price, must walk away. My last Saturday round trip I have mentioned earlier of 610 miles cost me “only” £66, because I fully charged it at night. If I would have to use public charging station to begin with, the price would be significantly higher.
If you can charge at home, but still will do lots of mileage and as a result have to frequently use public charges – do your maths. Do it very carefully.
But if you can charge at home over night using cheap rates and don’t drive too far on a daily basis (I am doing only 90-95 miles a day on M3 to and from office), then BEV is no brainer for you.
