Electric Cars

why?

• Cheaper to run

  Owners of an electric car have the advantage of much lower running costs. The electricity to charge an electric car works out around a third as much per kilometre as buying petrol for the same vehicle.
  

• Cheaper to maintain
  

  A battery electric vehicle has a lot less moving parts than a conventional petrol/diesel car. There is relatively little servicing and no expensive exhaust systems, starter motors, fuel injection systems, radiators and many other parts that aren’t needed in an electric car.

• Better for the environment

  • Less pollution:

    By choosing to drive an electric car you are helping to reduce harmful air pollution from exhaust emissions. An electric car has zero exhaust emissions.

  • Renewable energy:

    If you use renewable energy to recharge your car, you can reduce your greenhouse gas emissions even further. You could recharge your car from your solar panel system during the day instead of from the grid.
